About Us
Unite Iowa is a community data exchange of health and social service providers, sponsored by CyncHealth.

Organizations offering billable services will enter into a participation agreement to data-share with the health information exchange platform before joining the network. There may be a cost associated with data-sharing, but no additional charges to join Unite Iowa.Joining the network is at no cost for community-based organizations and many organizations that are considered part of the safety net, like community health centers, tribal clinics, and mental health centers.
Community Roots
“If we had not been part of Unite Iowa and if we did not have the platform, we simply would not have been aware of the needs of this family. In a nutshell, there was a need, and there were resources, but there wasn’t a roadmap between those two things. Unite Iowa is what gave us that roadmap and changed lives.” Learn more about the Unite Iowa network’s powerful story helping a family after a tragic fire: https://blog.uniteus.com/school-districts.

The COVID-19 pandemic made it clear to our community just how valuable a shared client system would be. After researching different options, we felt that Unite Us had the perfect platform to provide our partners with a solution that we’ve been talking about for years. The Muscatine community is excited to start using the system to not only make the client referral process more efficient for providers but to serve those in need in a much better way. It’ll also give us the information we need for better decisions in the future. Our expectations have not just been met, but have been exceeded so far.
– Shane Orr, Executive Director, United Way of Muscatine
