About Alosa Health

Home/About

From its beginnings in 2004, Alosa Health has been driven by its mission: to advance health outcomes by providing the most reliable, evidence-based information and guiding healthcare decisionmakers toward optimal care – always free from commercial influence.

Our name and logo are inspired by the remarkable fish genus Alosa – which includes herring and shad – renowned for their determination to swim upstream against powerful currents. This symbolizes our commitment to providing unbiased, expertly informed medical guidance and health policy advice. In an environment awash with commercial misinformation and often-perverse trends, Alosa Health is a steadfast partner for healthcare leaders and clinicians.

Alosa Health, its staff, and our clinical and health policy advisors do not accept consulting fees or any support from the pharmaceutical industry. This policy is fundamental to Alosa Health’s mission of providing unbiased, evidence-based clinical education and outreach to healthcare providers and policymakers. By maintaining this independence, Alosa can ensure that its educational programs and recommendations remain free from commercial influence, supporting the delivery of impartial and trustworthy information to clinicians.

"I have found that the unbiased data, information and frank discussions provided by Alosa Health have been invaluable in guiding my practice policies and procedures as a pain management physician. Furthermore, Alosa's outreach to primary care physicians has proven helpful in managing chronic pain in a safe and effective manner on a community wide basis. I applaud the efforts of Alosa Health and fully support their mission."
