Community health center delivering primary care
Lowell Community Health Center provides primary care and related health services to about 50,000 residents of Greater Lowell, with OB-GYN, behavioral health, pharmacy, eye care, dental, lab and radiology through a partner hospital, all housed in one renovated facility. It treats patients regardless of ability to pay, funding 76% of its income from insurance reimbursements and fees, with the rest from grants and gifts. More than 90% of patients are low income and 46% speak a language other than English, and the center aims to reduce health disparities and improve well-being through culturally competent care. Its differentiators are offering comprehensive, integrated services under one roof without denying care due to financial barriers and a long-standing presence in the community.
