Overview

Mission

Transforming lives through integrated care models that promote wellness and recovery for those living with serious mental illness and other complex conditions.

What it reported doing in 2024

The Minnesota community healthcare network (mchn) collaborates with allina health and the northwest metro alliance to deliver essential mental health and addiction case management services to eligible individuals. These services, which are not covered by medicaid, are designed to support recovery and enhance overall well-being. Mchn accepts patient referrals from both inpatient and outpatient sources across the healthcare system. After successfully serving adults since 2019, mchn expanded its services in 2024 to include youth referrals. In 2024, we achieved: growth in participation and engagement: in 2024, 66% of participants (475 individuals) met all or some of their recovery goals, compared to 60% (357 individuals) in 2023. Reduced inpatient admissions and er visits during the program. Sustained reductions in er use and inpatient hospitalizations 6 months post-program. Individuals served across 29 counties in Minnesota.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 100% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
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

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
