What the money paid for, in its own words
FY2025 · Form 990, Part III · the three largest programs by expenseCommunity assistance - low-income and other vulnerable populations in our community often face extraordinary barriers to accessing resources that sustain health. Thecommunity assistance program (cap) connects individuals in need of resources that help them successfully transition from a hospital or emergency room back into the community following a major medical intervention. Additionally, the team works closely with coordinated care organizations (ccos) to support medicaid members in accessing health-related, non-medical resources available to them
Outreach enrollment and access - whole person care goes far beyond simply having health insurance coverage. Our dedicated team of community health workers and donated care specialists empower individuals to access the care they deserve by scheduling appointments, providing prescription medication assistance, arranging donated care for uninsured individuals, ensuring coordination between an individual's social and health service providers, and providing language interpretation services so individuals can seek care in their primary language
Payment support - the first step to health care access is ensuring community members have adequate health insurance coverage that fits their needs. By providing essential support and guidance, Project Access Now empowers individuals to make informed decisions about their health insurance coverage and access the care they need. For individuals who make too much to qualify for free coverage through the oregon health plan, but not enough to afford private insurance, panow provided monthly insurance payment support
