Cambridge Health Alliance is an academic public health system that is helping people live better lives. Based in Cambridge, Somerville, and Boston’s metro-north region, we provide patient care, education, and outreach in hospitals, health centers, schools, community centers, and through some very special programs, right in people’s homes. As one of the ten largest health systems in Massachusetts, and as a public hospital system, we care for all those in need – from university professors to the underserved. We do this with medical services, public health programs, and through Network Health. With this coordinated system, we are able to meet the needs of the public, and the health needs of each patient. Today, we are proud to touch peoples’ lives in a number of ways. We are more than a health system; we are an integral part of our communities. Maybe that’s why patients come to us more than a half million times each year, and trust us to give them the very best healthcare.
