Stronger Families

Access to affordable health care is essential. We are excited to share our FY2022 Impact Statement which highlights how we helped open the doors to health for our DuPage neighbors. Spoiler alert, partnerships made each success possible.  

What are we celebrating this year? Here’s a small sample:

  • Comprehensive high-quality care for 5,741 insurance-ineligible families, including primary care, specialty care, medications, and hospital care at a direct cost of only $325 per member! This number is actually lower than the year prior, even though we added additional services.
  • 28,023 prescriptions filled through our Access DuPage pharmacy program (an increase in services, but not in costs).
  • Silver Access made high quality insurance affordable for 613 families and we plan to grow the program this year.  
Stronger Communities

DHC is committed to making sure that families that seek our help get connected to every resource at our disposal. Responding to community need, we increased income eligibility guidelines, launched innovative new medical debt reduction programs, initiated real time care coordination, and grew our team to include four new health navigators to help families enroll in insurance. 
A special thanks to Joan Wedge and the Marketing team at Northshore| Edward–Elmhurst Health, whose creative talents turned our words into art.
