RENTON, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Providence St. Joseph Health (PSJH), the nation’s third-largest non-profit health system, today announced the creation of Ayin Health Solutions (Ayin), a population health management company focused on helping organizations maintain stability in a shifting healthcare market. Ayin will equip payers, providers, employers and government entities with the expertise and services they need to reduce costs, improve care and keep pace with the healthcare industry’s transition to population health.
“These are tumultuous times for the healthcare industry and organizations are eager for proven strategies and solutions that will stabilize their business and guide their shift toward a new standard of care,” says Dr. Rhonda Medows, CEO of Ayin Health Solutions and president of Population Health at Providence St. Joseph Health. “We know that when health organizations are able to achieve clinical and financial success, they are better able to influence and care for the communities they serve.”
The formation of Ayin is a critical component of PSJH’s broader vision of health for a better world. This vision recognizes the current state of the healthcare industry and the need for modernization, revenue diversification and cost-efficient, total health care. Ayin will enable PSJH to achieve its bold vision by delivering solutions that will help other organizations improve clinical outcomes, simplify patient access to information, lower health care costs and meet payer and business requirements.
