Mission

NEHI is dedicated to transforming health care for the benefit of patients and their families.

Who we are

NEHI is a nonprofit, health policy institute focused on enabling innovation that will improve health care quality and lower health care costs. Working in partnership with members from across the health care system, NEHI brings an objective, collaborative and fresh voice to health policy. We combine the collective vision of our diverse membership and our independent, evidence-based research to move ideas into action.

How we’re different

NEHI is not a trade organization or typical think tank. We represent all sectors of health care and use our research to move ideas into action. As an independent, coalition-building entity, we find mutual solutions to mutual problems facing health care. We are the largest, most diverse, multi-stakeholder health care organization in the nation.
