About

NEHI has had important impact on health care and health policy at the national, state, and local level, as follows:

• NEHI’s research and recommendations on financing innovation, payment and delivery system reform, health information technology, and patient engagement have been cited in Congressional testimony; published in influential journals including the New England Journal of Medicine and the Journal of the American Medical Association; and cited in mainstream and social media.
• NEHI’s convening power brings together stakeholders from across sectors of health and health care, enabling us to build consensus on pressing issues such as paying for biopharmaceuticals, gathering data to support health improvement, and fostering more use of innovative technologies in health care delivery.
• NEHI educates policy makers and health care thought leaders and has influenced legislative and regulatory policy on Meaningful Use of health information technology; the Congressional Budget Office’s estimates on the cost and savings impact of medication adherence; and use of community health workers.
