Primary care for people with modest resources

 
75% of diabetic patients receiving care and health coaching in our clinic have their illness under control, compared to 54% for national managed care organizations.  

Comprehensive healthcare for those most in need

$17 million in care was donated to the uninsured patients we served last year by our network of 1,600 PRO providers , saving the community nearly $11 million in uncompensated hospital care each year.
Care Ring has partnered with Levine Cancer Institute , who is graciously donating comprehensive cancer care , including surgery, chemo, and other treatments, to any patient referred by Care Ring.

Mothers and their babies in Nurse-Family Partnership have a greater chance at economic mobility:  

Maternal employment increases by 82%
