About Altarum

Altarum has a deep-seated commitment to improving the health of individuals with fewer financial resources and populations disenfranchised by the system. As dedicated stewards, we bring our long-standing expertise to assist federal, state, and local government agencies in planning and implementing vital public health and health care service delivery programs. We extend their teams, working towards the shared mission of improving health for all.

The Altarum Enterprise is comprised of four operating divisions–Population Health, Public Health Systems, Palladian Partners, and Altarum Medicare Medicaid Services for States (AMMS). We are deeply immersed in the most critical and pressing public health and health care issues of our times, of which there are many. We stay at the forefront of innovation, working with our clients to lead the way in finding creative and enduring solutions to improve health.

This year’s 2023 impact report highlights only a fraction of our meaningful work. Throughout these stories, you will find examples of how we have effectively partnered with our clients to tackle some of the most challenging problems facing the public health and health care delivery systems, including innovative work for:

• The states of Tennessee, Maine, Michigan, and Texas to develop and administer strategies and programs to advance health, health equity, wellness, and independent living for individuals eligible for both Medicare and Medicaid.
• The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) to launch the 988 National Crisis Systems Response Training and Technical Assistance Center (CSR-TTAC) in support of a crisis care system that is integrated, sustainable, equitable, and aligned with evidence-based practices.
• The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to help reduce the burden of mpox on disproportionately affected communities through research on effective messages and tools for providers via the National Coalition for Sexual Health (NCSH).
• The National Council on Aging (NCOA) to develop and execute a national communication and marketing campaign to safeguard lives through greater Covid and flu vaccination rates among older adults.
• The Orange County Health Care Agency’s Public Health Services to develop and manage a Multi-Drug Resistant Organism (MDRO) data exchange.

On behalf of the Altarum Enterprise and our dedicated employees, we are grateful to have the opportunity to work so closely with our many clients to make an impact on the lives of those they serve.

A future of better health for all is within reach and we invite you to join Altarum on this journey. We are confident in our collective ability to work with our trusted partners to make a real difference in the lives of the people, communities, and populations they serve.
