Who We Are

Adirondack Health Institute is a team of mission-driven professionals partnering with regional health care providers and community-based organizations to improve health care, lower costs and realize a healthier future for the Adirondack region.

We do this in three ways:

1. Promote population health best practices and implementation strategies;
2. Manage programs that fund health advancement; and
3. Ensure individuals have access to care.

Background

AHI has been carefully constructed on a broad foundation of professional and community support so there is nearly continuous interaction with a wide array of stakeholders. We work with more than 125 organizations representing a broad range of health, community, and business sectors. The common thread across our programs is an emphasis on access to high-quality, well-coordinated, cost-effective care.
