Mission Statement

The Carolina Community Health Partnership's mission is to improve your access to quality healthcare and to improve your self-management skills through health education whether you live in Cleveland, Rutherford or surrounding counties. We will strive to achieve this goal thorough a collaborative effort between local healthcare providers and other community organizations. As the leaders of the Access II Program, we will live this mission by providing quality, cost effective resources and continuum of care.

Under the Community Care Program (formerly known as Access), North Carolina is building community health Networks that are organized and operated by community physicians, hospitals, health departments and departments of social services.
By establishing provider networks, the program is putting in place the local systems that are needed to achieve long-term quality, cost effective, access and utilization objectives in the management of care for Medicaid recipients.
Fourteen networks with more than 3,000 physicians across North Carolina are working with their local health departments, hospitals, and social service agencies to better manage the care of 745,497 Medicaid enrollees.
