A shared foundation for outpatient care
Clinic Commons is a public infrastructure project — built in the open, governed by clinicians, and protected as a public good. We maintain modular, openly licensed resources, from clinical protocols to governance models, designed to support safe, affordable care without lock-in.
Independent clinics often face the same challenges alone: developing protocols, creating workflows, adapting systems, or paying for platforms that don't match how they operate. Clinic Commons offers a shared foundation shaped by clinicians and built for everyday practice, so no clinic has to start from scratch. We’re beginning with prototypes for office-based labs and ambulatory surgery centers, with a broader aim to support independent care across the outpatient landscape.
The Clinic Commons Foundation is the nonprofit steward of the project. It holds the legal and community framework — licenses, trademark, and shared rules — that keep the commons open, accountable, and in the hands of those who provide care. Its role is to protect the integrity of the project and ensure it remains a tool the clinical community can trust, use, and shape together.
Built to support care — and made for those who deliver it.
