About Us
We have a passion for understanding the healthcare market environment—and helping others understand it too. Learn more about our story, our service offerings, and our team below.
Our Story
We are a team of best practice and strategy researchers who began our professional journey together almost 20 years ago at the Advisory Board Company in Washington, DC. We spent two decades developing market and performance guidance by interviewing executives, building models, reading 1,000-page proposed rules, and synthesizing our findings. We whiteboarded, root-caused, drafted, ripped up, and rewrote countless presentations. We crisscrossed the nation (and the world!) learning and teaching.
​
Union Healthcare Insight is the research membership we always wanted to make. It reflects our beliefs about the information environment. Such as how easy it is for consequential facts to be lost in healthcare's noise, politics, and sheer, forbidding complexity. How important it is to put the work into discerning the actual mechanics of the market. And how, if we do, everyone can understand and productively engage with health care strategy.
Union Healthcare Insight is dedicated to supporting its members with independent, curated, holistic, and objective information about health care strategy , sectors, actors, and the market environment.

We invite you to come along on this learning journey with us.

-
A regularly updated State of the Union presentation and white paper

Education
We take seriously the fact that healthcare contains a multitude of complex topics, and key stakeholders come from diverse knowledge backgrounds.
​
-
For each of our major research reports, member organizations receive an optional 'get up to speed' tutorial for learners who need a quick boost or refresher before accessing the main report.
-
Our topical tutorials can also be used as multi-session educational curricula for your team.

We can field an anonymous Strategic Topic Knowledge Benchmarking Survey among your team members. This ensures your team's education time is well spent—and allows you to measure before-and-after knowledge gains.

We also hold in-person events bringing together executives from across the industry for facilitated discussions.
