Services Received
Focus on Patients
Close to 90% of the money we spend goes to patient services. Keeping administrative costs low is how we provide a year’s worth of comprehensive care for $1,000 a patient.
Graduate on Time
90 percent of our patients graduate from high school on time. That’s a graduation rate one-third higher than the city’s and the nation’s.
Access to Health Care
2.3
Our patients visit us an average of 2.3 times a year. Teens in similar demographics see a health care provider only about once a year on average.1 And they’re twice as likely as our patients to receive health care in an emergency room.2
