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.
This special 25th-anniversary event in Music City brought together innovators dedicated to advancing health and well-being for all. Attendees shared best practices, participated in learning sessions, expert panels, and inspiring keynote presentations, and engaged in peer-to-peer collaboration—all focused on improving care quality, sharing proven strategies, and illuminating what’s possible.
Leading with vision and partnership
In her opening keynote, OCHIN President and CEO Abby Sears honored our 25th anniversary and highlighted OCHIN’s commitment to standing alongside our members as a trusted knowledge solutions partner, dedicated to supporting their success and helping them thrive. She then moderated a panel discussion with three OCHIN team members about how OCHIN knowledge solutions continue to help members transform community care for the future.
Guest keynote speaker Rishi Manchanda, MD, MPH, shared insights on addressing the root causes of health issues to improve patient outcomes and help everyone achieve their full health potential. Manchanda also acknowledged OCHIN members for their strong commitment to expanding access to patient-centered care and serving as pillars of strength for their communities.
Fostering collaboration and innovation
The strong turnout underscored the ongoing need for collaboration and innovation among community-based providers navigating a dynamic health care landscape. Supported by over 40 sponsors, the four-day Learning Forum welcomed more than 1,100 participants, including representatives from 160 OCHIN member organizations.
Attendees took part in more than 150 learning sessions aimed at strengthening their operations, enhancing clinician well-being, and advancing clinical excellence to drive better patient outcomes.
The event also celebrated the 2025 OCHIN Impact Awards, honoring four member organizations for their groundbreaking work in transforming the health and well-being of patients, clinicians and communities.
