Florida Gov. Rick Scott presented the Governor's Business Ambassador Award to Availity, the nation's largest real-time health information network, for Availity's contributions to Florida's economic vitality. The Governor's Business Ambassador Award is given to individuals and businesses in recognition of their efforts to create jobs and opportunities within the state. Founded in Jacksonville in 2001, Availity employs more than 400 Floridians, and has created 130 new jobs in Florida in just the past two years.
Governor Rick Scott said, "I was proud to present Availity with the Governor's Business Ambassador Award in recognition of their continued investment in our state and the creation of more than 400 jobs for Florida families. We are working to make Florida the best place for job creators and families to succeed and I look forward to seeing Availity's continued growth in Jacksonville."
Availity has deep roots in Florida, including community involvement on corporate and personal levels, and paid time off for employees who wish to volunteer. Among many community based programs Availity supports, most notable is the United Way of Northeast Florida's Achievers for Life program, where dozens of Availity team members volunteer time and school supplies at Ribault Middle School in Jacksonville.
