FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Central Maryland Chamber President & CEO Dewan Clayborn Selected to Serve on AHEAD Model Statewide Advisory Committee

Central Maryland — The Central Maryland Chamber is proud to announce that President & CEO Dewan Clayborn has been selected to serve on the AHEAD Model All-Payer Total Cost of Care Target Technical Advisory Committee (TAC), a key statewide body guiding Maryland’s next generation of health care policy.
The AHEAD Model — All-Payer Health Equity Approaches and Development — represents Maryland’s transition to a more accountable, equitable, and cost-effective health care system. The Technical Advisory Committee plays a critical role in helping state and federal partners set realistic cost targets, assess risks, and ensure the model supports both health outcomes and economic growth.

​“This appointment ensures that the voice of employers, small businesses, and regional industries is represented at the highest levels of health policy decision-making,” said Clayborn. “Our goal is to help shape a system that improves care while protecting affordability and competitiveness for Maryland businesses.”

As the only truly regional chamber in the state, representing eight jurisdictions and more than 2.7 million residents and businesses, the Central Maryland Chamber is uniquely positioned to provide cross-county perspective on the economic impacts of health policy.

Clayborn’s service on the TAC strengthens the Chamber’s role as a trusted partner to hospitals, state agencies, and federal stakeholders while advancing its mission to advocate for a stronger, more competitive business environment.
