What Connects a Pharmacist, a Physician and a Software Engineer?

At One Health, a rheumatologist might help a patient manage a complex autoimmune condition. 

A pharmacist might work to make sure a patient can access the medication that physician prescribed. 

A care manager might help someone navigate what happens after they leave the hospital. 

A software engineer might build a tool that helps clinicians identify patients at risk before a problem becomes a crisis. 

Very different jobs. 

But they’re all working toward the same thing: making healthcare work better for people.

Why does One Health do so many different things?

One Health doesn’t fit neatly into one healthcare category. 

We’re a nonprofit organization that includes specialty physician practices, pharmacy, care management, technology and teams caring for people across different healthcare settings. 

That can look like an unusual combination until you look at healthcare from the patient’s perspective. 

Patients don’t experience healthcare in neat organizational categories. They move between physicians, specialists, pharmacies, hospitals, skilled nursing facilities and home. The problems they encounter often happen between those pieces. 

So we’re building across them. 

The goal isn’t to own a collection of healthcare businesses. It’s to connect capabilities that can solve problems for patients, physicians and the organizations caring for them. 

That’s the red thread across One Health. 

What does that mean if you work here?

It means we’re still building. 

One Health isn’t a traditional health system with decades of established processes and a predetermined way of doing everything. 

We’re asking different questions. 

  • Why does this work this way? 
  • Does it have to? 
  • What would make it better? 
  • And can we actually build that?

     

That creates an environment where people have an opportunity to shape how things work, not simply inherit them. 

It also means your job may evolve as the organization does. Teams collaborate across businesses and functions. New ideas can turn into new programs. Problems that don’t fit neatly into someone’s job description still need someone willing to solve them. 

For the right person, that’s part of what makes the work interesting.

What does that look like in real life?

The best way to answer that isn’t through a corporate mission statement. It’s through the people doing the work. 

“What I value most about working at One Health is our commitment to treating patients as a whole. With multiple specialties working together, we collaborate and provide comprehensive, patient-centered care. We don’t simply prescribe or administer medications; we take the time to listen to our patients, understand their concerns, and identify other factors that may be affecting their overall health and well-being. I also appreciate the additional support services we provide, such as in-house pharmacists and patient navigators, which help address barriers to care and bridge gaps within the healthcare system. This collaborative approach allows us to meet our patients where they are and provide the support they need to achieve better health outcomes.”
Mena PiliinMSN, FNP-C
“Our teams are redesigning healthcare delivery to focus on what's important to patients (and providers) - stellar access to care, continuity in care across care teams, clinical best practices and innovation, patient experience, and patient/provider collaboration. Our operations are built to most effectively fulfill these patient expectations and consistently provide excellent care.”    
Jerry O’KeefeSr. Vice President Operations
“Even though I’m not providing patient care directly, I see the connection between the work I do and the patients we serve. The systems and tools we support help caregivers do their jobs effectively while protecting patient information. Knowing that my work supports quality care, strengthens privacy, and helps maintain the trust of our patients gives it real purpose. Their safety, security, and privacy are always our utmost priority.”
Faraz GulDirector, IT Operations & Compliance

Different people will have different reasons for being here. But the common thread should be recognizable: a belief that healthcare can work better and a desire to help build it. 

Maybe that's the real job description

We need physicians, clinicians, operators, technologists and business leaders with deep expertise in what they do. 

But expertise alone isn’t what connects people across One Health. 

It’s curiosity about what could work better. Comfort with building while we’re growing. A willingness to question things healthcare has accepted as inevitable. And an understanding that even when your work happens far from a patient, what you build can ultimately affect their care. 

We’re building a different kind of healthcare organization. 

And we need people who want to help build it.
