The Levy Incubator is a joint venture between The Dartmouth Institute for Health Policy & Clinical Practice (TDI) and the Department of Community and Family Medicine at Dartmouth Health (DH).

The Incubator supports the development of innovative health care delivery solutions. The Incubator’s primary goal is to provide rapid, scalable, and transformational redesign of health care services.

In 2025, the Levy Incubator aligned with the Northern New England Systems Transformation for Primary Care (NNEST-PC) to focus on innovative redesign of primary care services for rural, vulnerable populations with integration of community-based social services.

By bringing together clinical leaders from Dartmouth Health and Geisel School of Medicine along with experts from multiple disciplines at Dartmouth College, the Incubator supports projects that:

  • Improve the patient experience by developing and testing interventions to improve care experience(s) for patients, family members, and providers
  • Prioritize a patient-focused approach by ensuring medical care is aligned with patient goals
  • Advance quality improvement of the services delivered to patients
  • Reduce spending on unnecessary, ineffective, or unwanted interventions
  • Advance scholarly work to further expand Dartmouth’s leadership in health care delivery through design, implementation, and dissemination of health care delivery redesign projects
