Four community health centers were honored at this year’s OCHIN Learning Forum for their work partnering with OCHIN to measurably improve the lives of their patients, clinicians and communities, while driving innovation to support the continued resilience of rural and community healthcare.

Five community health organizations, including one of Hawaii’s nine critical access hospitals, went live on the OCHIN Epic electronic health record platform during the first quarter of 2026.

OCHIN has been named one of The NonProfit Times’ 2026 Best Nonprofits to Work For, a national recognition based on employee experience feedback. This honor marks the fourth time OCHIN has received the designation and places the organization among 50 nonprofits in the U.S. recognized each year.

A new OCHIN partnership provides members in both networks with an innovative option to pursue value-based care and meet growing patient demand in rural and community care settings

OCHIN is aware of TriZetto’s national data breach which has impacted many organizations, including our members who depend on TriZetto as a third-party claims clearinghouse vendor.

OCHIN is expanding our apprenticeship program, creating new pathways for people seeking hands-on experience and long-term career growth in health IT or related fields.

Twelve community health organizations in eight states—including the first member in Michigan—went live on OCHIN Epic during the final quarter of 2025, bringing the total number of organizations that implemented the premier electronic health record (EHR) platform for automation last year to 32.

The 2026 Learning Forum, taking place May 11-14 in New Orleans, offers actionable strategies and collaborative learning that help members thrive in a rapidly changing health care environment.  

OCHIN has joined a collective legal action led by Epic to protect and uphold the integrity of our national health information exchange frameworks against a growing group of fraudulent actors who are actively exploiting them for financial gain.

The OCHIN-led ADVANCE Clinical Research Network hosted the PCORnet® Roadshow in September to advance clinical research that improves care delivery and patient outcomes in community health organizations.
