Seven community health organizations in four states went live on OCHIN Epic during the second quarter of 2025.

Asian Health Services enhanced clinical quality by finding a way to keep patients with hypertension connected to care—especially when visiting the clinic was a challenge during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Through their pivotal involvement in the ADVANCE Clinical Research Network (CRN), OCHIN members are not just laying the foundation for future research discoveries—they are driving groundbreaking advancements that transform science and profoundly benefit our member network.

This year, OCHIN proudly celebrates 25 years of collective impact, fueled by the insights and imagination of our members and partners across the country.

Did you know that chronic diseases are responsible for nearly 90% of health care costs in the U.S.? Heart disease, cancer, diabetes, obesity, and high blood pressure, also called hypertension, are not just statistics. As the leading causes of death and disability in the U.S., they impact millions of lives every day. 

OCHIN has been honored as one of the top nonprofits to work for in the U.S. by the NonProfit Times. The 2025 Best Nonprofits to Work For designation places OCHIN among 50 organizations recognized for championing a well-rounded work environment.

OCHIN members and partners from across the country gathered in Nashville this April for the annual OCHIN Learning Forum, celebrating a significant milestone: 25 years of innovation, collaboration and impact across the OCHIN network.
