Company History
Inova Health System began in 1956 in response to Northern Virginia's growing need for convenient, accessible health care. Known as the Fairfax Hospital Association, the not-for- profit health care system grew from one hospital to a network of hospitals and other health care services. In the late 1980s, we changed our name to Inova Health System. Many people like the name Inova (pronounced inn-OH-vah) because it seems to suggest both our commitment to innovation in health care and our deep roots in the Northern Virginia community.
