Conceived in 1975, Healthwise was one of the first companies to lead the consumer health movement. With its mission to "help people make better health decisions," this nonprofit has grown to 177 employees, all of the top three disease management companies, hundreds of hospitals, and most of the large web portals. With dogs in the workplace and cruiser bikes in the lobby, Healthwise has long been seen as something of a promised land by professionals in the health information industry. A shift from paper to Net-based documents and phenomenal growth in both revenue and staff numbers have resulted in rethinking work processes to create cross-functional teams, thus avoiding a siloed dynamic. Most importantly, the organization has institutionalized its culture "The Healthwise Way" around the pillars of respect, teamwork and "do the right thing." The company consistently attracts top talent and transplants to its Boise office.
