One Utah Health Collaborative

What One Utah Health Collaborative does

The One Utah Health Collaborative is an independent 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded in September 2022 by Governor Spencer Cox with a 15-year mandate to transform healthcare in Utah. Headquartered in Salt Lake City, the organization operates as a neutral convener bringing together Utah's payers, providers, health systems, employers, government agencies, and community advocates to align on shared goals for healthcare affordability, quality, and access. Its product portfolio centers on data transparency and stakeholder alignment: interactive dashboards built on Utah's All-Payer Claims Database (the Cost Driver Analysis covering 2019-2023 spending patterns and the HEDIS/CAHPS quality dashboard), the statewide Screen Utah Initiative for colorectal cancer screening (which increased screening rates by 3-5% over three years), and the Digital Health Interoperability Pilot leveraging HL7 FHIR API standards across six workstreams including prior authorization and clinical data exchange. The organization also publishes annual healthcare spending growth reports, the statewide Trust and Affordability Survey, and the Utah Model of Care framework adopted in October 2024.

The Collaborative is funded through a mix of public and private contributions from named supporters including Molina Healthcare, Boyer Company, and the Larry H. Gail Miller Family Foundation, and it does not charge for its services. Its go-to-market motion is community-led: 60+ organizations have signed the Collaborative's pledge, the Stakeholder Community Board comprises 36 members, and Technical Advisory Group members represent more than 95% of insured Utahns across nine major insurers. Key institutional bodies include the Healthcare Spending Target Task Force (co-chaired by Utah Insurance Commissioner Jon Pike and Salt Lake Chamber CEO Derek Miller), the Innovation Advisory Board, and the Transparency Advisory Committee. Operating geographies are limited to Utah, and the organization is governed by an independent Board of Directors with no parent company, PE ownership, or external control structure.
