Membership / Affinity Groups
Where the next gap gets named.
AHIS Affinity Groups are just getting started. Affinity Groups bring patients, caregivers, advocates and community organizations together to name the gaps they see and shape what AHIS takes on. Tell us which groups should exist, and whether you'd like to join or help lead one.

What members will do
Your experience, put to work.
Tell us where care breaks down. Gaps can become campaigns or Implementation Support Programs.
Review awareness campaigns and materials before they launch.
Help decide which outcomes matter to the people a program serves.
Impact reports return to members before they're published.
How groups form
By care area, by community, or both.
Groups form where interest comes together, based on what you tell us.
Oncology, respiratory, vaccines and more.
Caregivers, rural patients, a region such as West Tennessee, or a language community.
For example, oncology care for rural patients in Tennessee.
You can also identify a gap anytime.

Questions
Common questions.
When do Affinity Groups start?
Now. We're forming the first groups based on what you recommend.
Does it cost anything?
Affinity Groups are free for patients and caregivers. Organizations take part through AHIS membership, which is complimentary for patient advocacy and community-based organizations.
I'm a clinician, health system or employer. Can I join?
You shape the work in other ways: through the Implementation Advisory Committee, as an implementation hub, or through membership. Affinity Groups are the patient and community voice.
Can sponsors join?
Sponsors take part through the Sponsor Advisory Council.
Will my experience be shared?
Only with your permission. See our Privacy Policy.
Your voice starts the loop.
