About SAHA

Founded in 2004 by independent health systems in North Carolina, the Southern Atlantic Healthcare Alliance (SAHA) is a collaborative of hospitals and health systems committed to improving healthcare quality, reducing costs, and sharing knowledge across the continuum of care. With a strategic shift in 2024, SAHA is evolving from a convener into a catalyst for business ventures, innovation, and meaningful collaboration that drive collective value.

Our members benefit from:

• Preferential pricing and vetted service/solution vendor partnerships that complement, not duplicate, traditional GPO supply chain offerings. Working together, we deliver a positive ROI.
• Access to cutting-edge solutions that enhance care and operational performance. Who can stay on top of all the vendor solutions on their own?
• Collective learning and productive collaboration to innovate the care model and deliver higher value to patients and the communities served. We don't each need to reinvent the wheel!

Guided by our Board and a forward-thinking strategic plan, SAHA has five value-focused priorities: Quality Performance, Financial Health, Engagement Elevation, Operational Efficiency, and Transformative Innovation. Our members note SAHA as being nimble, focused on them, and able to create an intimate, trusted forum of like-minded health systems. We serve providers who value independence but believe in the power of working together to move faster, think bigger, and achieve more.

At SAHA, we're not just improving healthcare delivery; we're helping our members transform their communities' health. Together, we help preserve regionally focused independent health systems. Contact us to learn more about what makes SAHA special and why it stands the test of time.
