CaroNova works to improve healthcare access and affordability so all Carolinians can thrive.
The healthcare challenge demands urgency.
But we can’t treat a crisis with temporary, unsustainable, and costly measures and avoid the underlying issues.

Our communities deserve a healthier future.
We are CaroNova. We leverage strategy and cross-sector collaboration to create, test, and scale solutions. Accelerating the transition to a more equitable, affordable, and effective healthcare system for all Carolinians.
Success will require innovation, certainly.
In many cases, we already know what works and what doesn’t. And sometimes the most innovative thing we can do is simply see a solution through to the end.
We believe
every community deserves access to affordable healthcare – and that through persistence and innovation, we can accelerate this reality.
We empower
leaders throughout the Carolinas by co-developing strategies and solutions that drive long-term health system reforms instead of temporary remedies.
We partner
with payors, providers, and community members to cultivate ideas, co-design solutions, and catalyze change to identify, create and refine health innovations that are scalable and sustainable.
