Payers
Public and commercial payers align on value-based, community-embedded models.
Alignment layer · Coalition
The alignment layer of the NHIT system: a pre-competitive coalition that turns policy signal into deployable infrastructure — with named participants across the health economy.
Why a coalition
Without pre-competitive alignment, every actor optimizes locally, and nothing scales. The NHIT Industry Coalition is where payers, providers, vendors, academia, and community-governance meet before a deployment — not after.
Public and commercial payers align on value-based, community-embedded models.
Health systems, FQHCs, and territorial systems commit to interoperable deployment.
Data, cloud, and clinical technology partners commit to non-lock-in interoperability.
Schools of public health and evaluators keep the evidence discipline honest.
Community-based organizations and CHW cooperatives hold the ownership seat.
Agencies and territorial governments participate as convening partners.
How the coalition operates
Monthly pre-competitive working sessions on specific deployment questions — with named leads and minutes.
Quarterly briefings for federal, territorial, and philanthropic partners on coalition progress.
The annual NHIT Legislative Summit — public convenings that translate coalition work into policy signal.
