Avalere, a division of Avalere Health, is a consulting firm headquartered in Washington, D.C. that focuses on healthcare business strategy, policy development, and data analytics. Its expertise serves clients across life sciences, health insurance plans, healthcare providers, government bodies, and industry groups. Additionally, the firm produces research reports addressing healthcare topics and the ongoing discussions surrounding U.S. healthcare reform.

History

Originally established in 2000 as The Health Strategies Consultancy LLC by Dan Mendelson, Avalere experienced a significant development in 2008 when Mendelson sold a minority interest to ABS Capital Partners, a private equity firm based in Baltimore. On September 1, 2015, Avalere was acquired by Inovalon (Nasdaq: INOV), a technology company offering cloud-based platforms aimed at advancing data-driven healthcare solutions. Following this acquisition, Avalere functioned as a subsidiary specializing in advisory services related to market consolidation, cost control, quality enhancement, managed care strategies, business intelligence, and corporate communications. The company also released analyses concerning drug coverage and managed care programs within the United States. In June 2022, Avalere was purchased by Avalere Health, formerly known as Fishawack Health.
