Ardent Health
Ardent Health is betting that a hospital system can stay local while its technology, purchasing and operating discipline scale nationally. Across six states, the result is a care network stretching from the emergency room to the smartphone.
El Camino Health
El Camino Health is a not-for-profit healthcare system that has served Silicon Valley and the South Bay for more than 60 years. Born from a 1950s community vote and a tax that residents levied on themselves, it runs two acute care hospitals in Mountain View and Los Gatos plus roughly two dozen care locations across Santa Clara County. With 471 beds, about 4,480 employees and 1,585 physicians, it blends a community-rooted mission with the technology-forward instincts of the valley it sits in.
Vituity
Vituity is a 100% physician-owned and led multispecialty partnership delivering acute care across the United States. Founded in 1971 as California Emergency Physicians (CEP America), it rebranded as Vituity in 2018, combining 'vital' and 'acuity.' Today roughly 5,500 doctors and clinicians staff emergency departments, hospital medicine, critical care, anesthesiology, psychiatry, neurology, telehealth and more across hundreds of care sites in 27+ states, treating millions of patients a year - all without private equity, insurer, or hospital-system ownership.
