Evidence-based care, run efficiently.

Innovations Health was started in 2012 by two healthcare operators who had spent their careers on the hardest problems in delivery: cost, risk, and quality. The companies share administrative infrastructure so each can focus on care.

Innovations Health Systems, LLCsince 2012

Innovations Health Systems, established in 2012 in Citrus Heights, northeast of Sacramento, owns and operates healthcare businesses in acute, post-acute, day health, and mobility markets, and provides contract management, marketing, succession planning, and administrative services to the companies in its portfolio.

The shared administrative infrastructure is the point: one back office lets each operating company deliver care efficiently without rebuilding the same functions. The stated mission is a paradigm shift in human mobility, using advanced technology to improve quality of life.

Outside the companies, Innovations Health is the title sponsor of the Great American Triathlon and supports local organizations including Child Advocates of Placer and El Dorado County, The Taylor House, the American River Parkway Foundation, United Cerebral Palsy of Sacramento, the American Heart Association, and the American Cancer Society.
