Overview

Mission

AOK HealthCare Consortium, Inc. is a cooperative organization designed to address the need for Western Arkansas and Eastern Oklahoma residents to have access to healthcare services. The Organization is currently comprised of hospital administrators and other representatives from several counties in Western Arkansas and Eastern Oklahoma dedicated to understanding the health care issues in the area and creating and implementing community-based solutions to resolve these issues. The organization is designed to pool resources in order to help provide healthcare services across communities in the area and to assist in obtaining funding to develop and implement new healthcare programs through funding opportunities from state, federal and local financial support.

What it reported doing in 2012

Telemedicine Program- This program is leading the way to ensure that patients at remote hospitals in Western Arkansas and Eastern Oklahoma have access to life-saving stroke care. The Arkansas Oklahoma Healthcare (AOK) Consortium's Telemedicine program uses real-time video-conferencing technology to bring experienced physicians at a primary stroke center to eleven rural health care facilities to assist with patients. Through this cooperative effort, the smaller community hospitals now have 24/7 access to stroke care expertise at a moment's notice. In the case of a stroke, when every second counts, this advanced telemedicine technology can help provide immediate care to stabilize patients. Last year, the program helped treat over 50 stroke patients in the region.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of total spending goes to programs. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
