Asha Immanuelle 96N
Impassioned Maternal Health Equity Advocate

Asha Immanuelle is dedicated to transforming healthcare access and delivery, drawing on her whole-person nursing perspective and expertise in population health management to optimize health outcomes. She believes that if we can design workflows capable of landing a rover on Mars, we can certainly create systems that achieve the Quadruple Aim—enhancing care experiences for patients and caregivers, reducing costs, and improving health outcomes equitably across populations. For Asha, settling for the status quo in healthcare is not an option.

Her focus lies in workflow redesign, alternative payment models, and cross-sector collaboration as the cornerstones of meaningful healthcare transformation. Driven by the vision of integrating social care into healthcare, Asha seeks to address community-level social determinants of health (#SDoH) that impact well-being on a broad scale.

Asha envisions an equitable, learning healthcare system that connects the dots across the care continuum and aligns incentives for true population health. She champions collaboration, connection, and cooperation centered on patient health priorities, advocating a community-oriented approach as the most effective path forward.
