Question 1

How many companies/vendors are involved with this project?

Accepted Answer

We currently have over 115 companies who are working through or have submitted the DHCA (as of May 2022).

Question 2

What health systems is ADviCE collaborating with?

Accepted Answer

Currently, we are partnered with UCSF, Mayo Clinic, Brigham and Women’s Hospital, University of Utah, and Providence Health. We hope to include more as we grow and improve.

Question 3

How will you ensure that the information vendors share with you will not be visible to other competitors on the marketplace?

Accepted Answer

The registry is set up as a CRUD matrix (Create, Read, Update, Delete) that will limit the ability of vendors to see other vendors’ Common Application data, but everyone will be able to see who is participating in the registry.

Question 4

How is ADviCE being funded, and who is ADviCE funded by?

Accepted Answer

We will commit to updates for early participants through 2022 as we do our fundraising and launch as a corporation. We are internally funded, but at this stage, we cannot share any more details with vendors than that.

Question 5

For vendors, is there a cost to participate?

Accepted Answer

No, we only ask that you fill out the DHCA and provide feedback about the process. Note: There is the possibility of requiring a fee from vendors after December 2022, but we will be transparent about that with vendors before implementing it.
