Our Stories
Real Solutions. Real Impact.
A Youth Mental Health Crisis
Too many young South Carolinians are struggling with mental health challenges without access to support. CaroNova is testing in-school innovations that could change that.
Finding Relief for Serious Illness Care
Navigating end-of-life care is one of the hardest experiences families face. CaroNova is bringing stakeholders together to deliver better outcomes when it matters most.
A Healthcare Workforce Shortage
Nearly 1 in 5 healthcare workers left during the pandemic, and the shortage continues. We are partnering with stakeholders to adopt practices to rebuild and retain the workforce.
What We Do
Design, Test, & Scale
Solving Real-World Health Challenges

Sharing Results & Best Practices
Breakthrough innovations shouldn’t take years to spread. We capture what we learn and rapidly share evidence-based practices across our network of providers, policymakers, and community leaders, turning isolated wins into regional transformation.
A Common Table for Everyone
CaroNova bridges the gap between payors, providers, and patients.
CaroNova serves as the common table where competitors become collaborators, where promising ideas become proven models, and where systemic barriers get dismantled through shared resources and strategic alignment. By co-designing and testing innovative care models, we align incentives and policy to solve the region’s toughest health challenges.
Our mission is clear: share what works, scale what matters, and improve outcomes for everyone.
