We believe our responsibility to our community reaches beyond what you might expect from a health care system. We work with dedicated community partners to influence policy and to provide preventive medicine, health education, healthy food assistance and financial assistance to those who need it most.
Veterans Programs
ProMedica is honored to partner with the U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs to help our military service members get the medical attention they need. If you live more than 40 miles or have to wait more than 30 days for an appointment at a VA facility, you may be eligible to receive care from one of ProMedica’s physicians, hospitals and other services.
Government Relations
We know that improving health and well-being goes beyond clinical care. We're honored to work with community leaders, government agencies, advocacy groups and others on your behalf. Be assured our efforts are completely nonpartisan: Our sole focus is on identifying and advocating for policies that improve our communities and support the health of all.
