So Who is AVIA?

AVIAns – yes, that’s what we call ourselves – are curious people. That’s how we built a wealth of knowledge around digital transformation. We talk to all of our 60+ health systems and hundreds of digital health companies each month and we ask questions. We embed ourselves in the work. We ask more questions. Then we bring all of that intel to our partners to accelerate learning and meaningful action for you.

Health systems that embrace digital as a key to transform their clinical, operational, and consumer-facing strategies stand to benefit from $400M in annual value versus those who stick with the status quo.

AVIA advances digital transformation in healthcare through leading market intelligence, performance analytics, and advisory services that accelerate the operational, clinical, and consumer strategies deployed at health systems. With a national network of 60 health systems - comprising 500 hospitals - relationships with thousands of digital health companies, and more than a decade of digital health experience, AVIA de-risks, accelerates, and reduces the cost of digital transformation.

Our health system membership help the health system leaders manage the steps of a holistic process of digital transformation through:

Stakeholder engagement and change readiness
Enterprise digital strategies and a strategic plan
Clear governance and operating models
An actionable roadmap

AVIA Marketplace is where health systems select tech. On this platform, health systems can review and shortlist solutions that will help drive their enterprise strategies. Through AVIA Marketplace, we work with digital health companies to ensure they are meeting the needs of, and reaching, health systems that need their solutions.

We are collaborative. Across AVIA and with our network of health systems, digital health companies, and industry partners, we are constantly connecting people. Want to know another health system leader who recently built a command center? Let us introduce you. Are you wondering how you should be thinking about Virtual Nursing or Generative AI? You aren’t the only one; we built Forums so our health system partners can get the value of the experts and peers in our network.

We are committed to driving healthcare transformation. With deep experience within health systems and digital health companies, as well as backgrounds in health equity, care transformation, operations, and consumerism, we believe digital as the key enabler to health systems’ success in the future.

AVIA is committed to infusing Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB) into our culture and our work. AVIA’s vision is to relentlessly build a more diverse, inclusive, and equitable community leading the country's digital healthcare transformation.

You want to make an outsized investment of your time and talent in a growing company, and for that, be paid well, and enjoy great benefits
We are different. We are a successful, well-funded, fast-growing company that still prides itself on our start-up values...like agility and risk-taking and celebrating (big wins, our diversity, and simple pleasures, like National Chocolate Lovers Day). We have enough infrastructure that every day isn’t a fire drill.
We do work that matters—a lot—making exciting things happen in healthcare at a moment when exciting things really need to happen: creative destruction of failed systems and blossoming of more efficient alternatives that create better experiences and win-for-all outcomes
We are each allowed to be—expected to be! —creative daily.
You’ve noticed—and appreciate—that we are genuinely committed to our Members and mission. It’s not just lip service to build a company
You think we seem like cool, committed, smart people. And with all due humility, yes, we really are. Passionate, practical, high-achieving and results-oriented, we also love to laugh, spitball big ideas, celebrate shared success, and share funny, embarrassing stories about our family members.

We're excited you because...

We are parched for your Zone of Genius at this moment in our growth and development.
You have a bias to action, prize results over activity, value speed to market, and strive for efficiency.
You thrive in situations with big opportunities and limited direction. They bring out your best talents to create, solve, own, guide, drive and stretch yourself and others

Even though your native language is systems and data, you understand that when it comes to health care, behind every trend line and data point is a real person, and n=1
