Iowa's premier health care providers are collaborating to address the rapidly changing health care environment. Our goal is to help Iowans stay healthy and deliver better-coordinated care all across the state. University of Iowa Health Alliance (UIHA) includes four of Iowa's premier health care organizations, representing 7 hospitals and more than 2,000 physicians. Alliance members are working together to better coordinate care, prevent and better manage disease, and conduct research. Through clinical integration, the alliance also seeks to reduce costs and deliver care more efficiently for all Iowans. Mercy Health Network based in Des Moines, Genesis Health System based in Davenport and Mercy-Cedar Rapids, University of Iowa Health Care of Iowa City, and Wheaton Franciscan Healthcare-Iowa of Waterloo are members of the alliance.
