Sana Solutions

What Sana Solutions does

Sana Solutions LLC is a privately held, boutique health advisory consultancy headquartered in New York, USA, serving healthcare systems, community-based organizations, government health agencies, and health-and-wellness startups. The firm is co-founded and operated by two principals — Dr. Amanda Falick Ascher (Chief Medical Officer, MD from NYU) and Dr. J. Robin Moon (Chief Strategy Officer, Doctor of Public Health from Harvard) — who together hold 50+ combined years of experience across public health, healthcare operations, Medicaid transformation, and policy advisory roles including prior service at NYC Health and Hospitals, the Bloomberg Administration, and the NYS DSRIP delivery system reform demonstration through Bronx Partners for Healthy Communities.

The company's product surface is entirely service-based and comprises an integrated advisory portfolio: Strategic Planning & Road-Mapping, Convening and Engaging Diverse Stakeholders, Value-Based Payment Consulting, Social Determinants of Health and Health Equity Solutions, Population Health Management advisory, Equitable Collaboration facilitation, Organizational Readiness, and Capacity Building. The firm augments client teams rather than replacing them, leveraging academic and clinical credentials to support organizational readiness for value-based, data-driven delivery and payment systems, with particular depth in NYS Medicaid transformation, health equity, and clinical-community linkages.

Sana Solutions operates as a 1–10 person professional services firm with project-based, relationship-driven go-to-market targeting decision-makers at healthcare systems, FQHCs, public health agencies, Medicaid programs, and C-suites. The firm does not operate a proprietary software platform or technology product; its intellectual property resides in the founders' expertise, academic positions (CUNY School of Public Health, CUNY School of Medicine, Albert Einstein College of Medicine), publication record, and reputational capital derived from fellowships including the Aspen Health Innovators Fellowship. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and engagements are described as quote-based and customized to client scope. Geographic focus is the United States, with concentration in New York State.
