Vivent Health

What Vivent Health does

Vivent Health is a non-profit 501(c)(3) healthcare organization operating the only federally designated HIV-dedicated Patient-Centered Medical Home recognized by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. Founded in 1985 as the AIDS Resource Center of Wisconsin, the organization has grown through a sustained merger strategy to operate 17 health center and pharmacy locations across six states (Wisconsin, Colorado, Illinois, Michigan, Missouri, and Texas), employing 251-500 staff including 100+ providers. Vivent Health serves people living with HIV, individuals at high risk for HIV (including PrEP and PEP patients), people who use drugs through harm reduction programs, LGBTQ+ communities, and uninsured or underinsured individuals, regardless of ability to pay.

The organization delivers integrated care across a portfolio of services including HIV medical care and treatment, primary care, PrEP/PEP, behavioral healthcare and psychiatry, dental care, harm reduction (Lifepoint syringe services and naloxone distribution), case management, food and nutrition services, housing assistance, and legal assistance. Its technology backbone consists of the OCHIN electronic health record system running on Epic, with interoperability via health information exchanges (WISHIN in Wisconsin, CORHIO in Colorado, Care Everywhere) and a MyChart patient portal. Vivent Pharmacy holds ACHC Specialty Pharmacy Accreditation with Distinction in HIV—a credential held by fewer than 1% of US pharmacies—and offers free prescription delivery, financial assistance, and medication adherence tools.

Vivent Health's revenue model combines patient services billing (insurance, Medicare, Medicaid, sliding fee scale), federal Ryan White Program and ADAP funding, 340B pharmacy program revenue, federal/state/local government grants, and philanthropic donations. The organization reports industry-leading clinical outcomes, including a 96% viral suppression rate versus a national average of 67% (93% for Black/African American patients, 97% for Hispanic/Latinx patients), and serves patients regardless of insurance status or ability to pay.
