The Coalition brings together America’s leading health organizations in pursuit of a reimagined health system: one in which the nation’s health care and public health systems no longer work in parallel, but hand in hand – with better health for all as the common goal.

Our approach – CARE
Health care and public health institutions responded to the COVID-19 pandemic by forging novel, impactful partnerships. We established formal agreements for information and resource sharing, developed and deployed emergency response plans, shared data more readily, and demonstrated the lifesaving function of infectious disease detection systems.
The Common Health Coalition was formed to cement these types of crisis-driven strategies into existing infrastructure and strengthen the partnership between the health care and public health systems, particularly to advance health equity, using our CARE framework.
Founding members and Chair
Former New York City Commissioner of Health Dave A. Chokshi, MD, MSc, chairs the Coalition and Chelsea Cipriano, MPH, serves as its Managing Director.
