How they approach the work

Named approaches extracted from this org’s sources. Where others share an approach, follow it to see the full set of orgs running it.

  • Integrated Care Navigation
    methodology: integrated resource navigation
    By embedding care coordinators, social workers, and digital tools to connect patients with medical, behavioral, and social services, we reduce systemic barriers to care, because holistic support improves treatment adherence and health equity.
  • Sliding-Fee Scale Model for Equitable Access
    methodology: sliding-fee_scale
    By adjusting patient costs based on income and family size, we ensure affordability and access to care regardless of insurance or financial status, because removing cost barriers increases utilization and reduces disparities in health outcomes.
  • Universal Access Commitment
    methodology: universal_access
    By providing care regardless of ability to pay or insurance status, we increase access for vulnerable populations, because consistent access to primary care improves long-term health outcomes and system trust.
