PROJECT SPOTLIGHT
Project
Health Hub
Agency
Center for People In Need
The Health Hub began October 1, 2011 as a program to connect uninsured individuals with health care and other resources. Health Hub advocates assist clients through a streamlined process to establish a medical home for their health care needs and to determine assistance programs for which they may be eligible. Advocates also assist clients in accessing free or discounted medications, securing specialty medical services, applying for programs such as food stamps or General Assistance, and referring to other agencies to address basic needs. The Health Hub is funded by grants from CHE and Catholic Health Initiative. Community partners include the Lancaster County Medical Society, People's Health Center, the Lincoln/Lancaster County Health Department, Clinic with a Heart, People's City Mission, E.D. Connections, and Matt Talbot Kitchen & Outreach.
For more information, call 1-402-817-0808 or visit Health Hub.
