Overview

Mission

Primehealth+ provides a wide scope of primary health care services to all mesa and surrounding county residents regardless of income or insurance status. The organization's vision is that mesa county and the surrounding counties are communities [continued on schedule o]where every resident has access to quality health care combined with the organization's core values - collaboration, compassion, excellence, inclusiveness, integrity, and stewardship.

What it reported doing in 2025

Primehealth+ provides primary and preventive health care services for all mesa, montrose and surrounding county's low-middle income, uninsured and underinsured population, birth to end of life. Primehealth+ opened its doors on may 2, 1988 and has grown substantially in size and scope while constantly searching for and adopting promising and innovative approaches to health care. The health care needs of the medically underserved population are more complex, chronic, and population-based than the larger population. Our health services are designed to address these needs through a multi-disciplinary team member approach. Our teams provide seamless, patient-centered care, with the patient's goals, cultural beliefs and choices guiding his or her care. Primehealth+ patients are empanelled to individual providers to assure both continuity of care and warm, trusting relationships. A welcoming team of eligibility specialists enroll patients in primehealth+ and determines their eligibility for our sliding fee scale (sfs), which is updated annually to align with federal poverty guidelines. The sfs takes into account the patient's income and household size. Discounted services are an important part of our mission and vision for health care that is affordable and accessible to all.primary medical care includes screenings and other preventive services such as cancer screenings, well-child visits, acute care, child and adult immunizations, and chronic disease management which is provided directly by primehealth+ physicians and nurse practitioners/physician assistants. This scope of care also includes women's health services such as prenatal care, labor and delivery and post-partum. Laboratory and imaging services are provided on site and by referral partners. Primehealth+ also provdes access to affordable pharmaceuticals for qualifying patients.behavioral care is integrated with medical care. As needed, the patient's medical appointment is enhanced with a short visit (called a "brief intervention") from a behavioral health provider for assistance with problem-solving, crisis counseling, self-care tips & community resources. This integrated care approach removes stigma and/or barriers to seeking help, and is very effective in helping low income, vulnerable patients to be successful in reducing stress, depression and anxiety while teaching them to manage their chronic diseases and improve their health. Case managers and health coaches further enhance our patient care through individualized planning and resources.dental care helps thousands of patients to improve their quality of life by alleviating pain, building life-long habits of good oral health and providing thorough diagnostics, treatment and follow-up care for a wide range of dental conditions. Our dental teams provide examinations, x-rays, preventive cleanings, fillings, crowns, bridges, extractions, root canals & dentures. A full time pediatric dentist cares for our youngest patients. We work on building trust, which leads to comprehensive, long term care designed to improve dental health.referral specialists throughout the community accept primehealth+ patients; most honor our sliding fee scale.accessibility to primehealth+ is increased by our presence in six different clinic locations where low income and vulnerable populations reside and/or receive services.1.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 65% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model

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

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised and expenses are high relative to revenue.
