Overview

Mission

To provide quality, integrated patient-centered health care services to the communities we serve.

What it reported doing in 2020

Health care services - the organization provides the broadest range of health services to consumers regardless of their ability to pay. To assure access and convenience, a community based one-stop shop is the model of care delivery that characterizes our approach. Primary care services include pediatrics, family medicine, internal medicine, and diabetes education. Ob/gyn, dental services, podiatry, pharmacy and mental health services are also provided on-site. An addictions service staff consisting of licensed clinical counselors, a medical provider, certified addictions counselors, and an outreach worker provides outpatient substance use disorder treatment. For non-english speaking patients, we also offer translation services and in-house bi-lingual staff. This program aims to make it possible for uninsured and low income working people to become drug free while still maintaining employment.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
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 most voting board members are independent. A relatively small share of total spending goes to programs and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
