Overview

Mission

To provide an information infrastructure for knowledge based information in support of health care practice and training in Arizona. To introduce, encourage and support widespread use of electronic information management tools by arizonas health care practitioners.

What it reported doing in 2025

Azhin has maintained fifteen 15 member institutions, and at least three member institutions have expanded beyond a single medical center, becoming a healthcare system that includes clinics and smaller critical access sites. The annual members meeting was held on january 24, 2025, followed by a retreat activity focused on redefining the value proposition of the consortium. In 2025, at least two members expanded their use of our sso service, implementing active directory requiring less management of created accounts. Publishers are starting to move away from ip and ezproxy access, making the sso service vital for uninterupted secure access to medical and research e-resources.

Operating model

Revenue model
Membership-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from membership dues.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
