Overview

Mission

Quality Healthcare to Everyone in Our Community

What it reported doing in 2024

Hunter health is a community health center that provides a broad range of health services to a largely medically underserved population of individuals including those experiencing homelessness, american indian/Alaska native communities, and underserved Kansas residents, including those who are uninsured or enrolled in public insurance programs. The organization offers comprehensive primary care services including medical, dental, behavioral health, substance abuse treatment, dietician support, medication assistance, health education, and services that facilitate access to care, such as translation and transportation. Hunter healths patient population is diverse, with approximately 34% identifying as non-hispanic white, 34% as hispanic/latino, 20% as black or african american, and 12% as native american. The organization continues its mission with the support of several funding sources such as the indian health services and Kansas department of health and environment grants.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model

  • Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Expenses are high relative to revenue and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
