Abbott Nutrition Health Institute

What Abbott Nutrition Health Institute does

Abbott Nutrition Health Institute (ANHI) is a web-based educational platform operated by Abbott Nutrition, the nutrition division of Abbott (NYSE: ABT). It provides accredited continuing education in clinical nutrition to healthcare professionals, primarily nurses, dietitians, physicians, and pediatric care providers. The platform delivers self-study and live courses, structured training programs (Adult Malnutrition, Pediatric Malnutrition, Neonatal Fundamentals), a Resources Hub of videos, podcasts, case studies, and printable materials, and curated content across priority topics including breastfeeding, cancer, diabetes, home tube feeding, mental health, MUAC measurement, obesity, and wound healing. ANHI is an approved continuing education provider through the California Board of Registered Nursing (Provider #CEP 11213) and the Commission on Dietetic Registration, and it supports content aligned with the Physician Nutrition Specialist (NBPNS) credential under new taxonomy codes effective January 1, 2025. A physical product, the MUAC z-score tape developed with Children's Mercy Kansas City, extends the offering into clinical assessment tools.

The underlying technology is a standard learning management system with online enrollment, certificate printing, CE credit tracking, and a separate grant management portal for medical education funding requests. ANHI also operates a Group Reservation Portal that enables Abbott Nutrition sales representatives to register groups of healthcare professionals for live programs. The platform is distributed globally via anhi.org and supported through a monthly newsletter, LinkedIn presence, and partnerships with institutions including Duke University, the Morpheus Consortium, NASPGHAN Foundation, Children's Mercy Kansas City, and Real Madrid.

ANHI does not generate revenue from end users: all educational content is provided free of charge to healthcare professionals. Operating costs and grant funding flow from Abbott Nutrition's medical education grants program, which reviews and funds nutrition science content requests from professional organizations and medical education companies. The platform therefore functions as a strategic marketing and medical-education asset for Abbott's broader nutrition business rather than a standalone commercial enterprise, with 251–500 employees and operations centered in Columbus, Ohio, within Abbott's broader US footprint.
