What it reported doing in 2024
The rural parish clinic operates a mobile medical clinic, since april 2019, to serve uninsured, income-qualifying residents in rural communities of the archdiocese of st louis, regardless of faith. All medical services are provided free of charge by volunteer providers. The medical mobile clinic employs 1 full-time coordinator, 1 part-time coordinator and 1 full-time nurse administrator. Currently, the medical mobile unit serves in 6 rural Missouri locations and sees patients twice a week. During fiscal 2025, july 2024 - june 2025, the mobile medical clinic provided 418 visits at no cost to its patients. Individuals who have no insurance and a household income at or below 200% of the federal poverty level may call the rural parish clinic to schedule services. The mobile medical clinic provides free primary health care, health maintenance, laboratory services and limited medications. Medical care services provided support improved community social determinants of health, as well as unnecessary emergency room visits. The majority of patients treated are unemployed and many are homeless, food insecure, in need of transportation assistance, and/or utility bill assistance.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 66% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 97% 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 total spending goes to programs and the filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
