North Carolina Health News is an independent nonprofit newsroom dedicated exclusively to health journalism. Founded in 2011, the organization produces in-depth reporting on healthcare systems, public health, mental health, rural medicine, health policy, aging, environmental health, and medical research across North Carolina. Its work is frequently republished by newspapers, broadcasters, and digital news organizations throughout the state. In addition to original reporting, the newsroom develops explanatory journalism that helps readers understand complex healthcare issues. Editorial independence is supported through nonprofit funding rather than commercial ownership. The organization also collaborates with academic institutions and other media partners on public-interest reporting. Its mission is to improve public understanding of healthcare and health policy through accurate, evidence-based journalism.
