Membership Information
The Alliance is open to all organizations who are aligned in our vision to make health data accessible, helping to improve care coordination and health outcomes. Members today range from health systems to non-profits, government agencies to health IT vendors and much more.
Alliance Membership
CommonWell membership options are aligned to what your organization’s health data exchange goals may be. Interested in offering CommonWell services to your customers? Consider becoming a Service Adopter. Looking to better demonstrate your commitment to interoperability in health care? Join us a General Member.
Service Adopters
Service Adopters are members committed to connecting to the network and building CommonWell Services into their software. Members who adopt services also become Contributor Members of the Alliance allowing them to actively participate in committees where they can both influence and vote on the direction of the Alliance and our service offerings.
General Members
General Members are those organizations that are not yet ready to or do not intend to adopt CommonWell Services. Members are encouraged to participate in Alliance activities and committees, including providing input on committee discussions and proposals.
