Aleph Yodh He (איה) was an American professional medical fraternity for Jewish students.[1] It went dormant in 1921 when it merged with Phi Lambda Kappa.

Aleph Yodh He formed in 1908 at the Chicago College of Medicine and Surgery. It operated with three divisions: Aleph Yodh He in the east, Phi Lambda Kappa in the West, and Zeta Mu Phi in the Midwest.[1] Its publication was Medic, which was published quarterly starting in January 1915.[1]

At a convention in Chicago in December 1921, these three divisions merged into Phi Lambda Kappa, discontinuing the use of the name Aleph Yodh He.[2] Around the time of the merger, Aleph Yodh He had some 350 members.
