"If health care is too far away or you’re worried about cost, you’re more likely to go without it. Novant Health is eliminating barriers to care by providing more access and investing in communities.”
–Dr. Jerome Williams, Jr, MD

All of us who work to fulfill Novant Health’s community-centered mission are adamant that no person should have to live without essential health care because of cost, insurance issues, lack of convenient access, or any other barrier. It’s one thing to believe this, but thanks to the generosity of donors like you, we’re meeting these challenges head on. Novant Health is working to transform “health care deserts” into well-resourced communities. Here are a few success stories made possible by your giving:
- Expanding Today’s Woman OB/GYN in Winston-Salem to provide primary care services
- Deploying mobile health units to needed communities across NC to provide easier access to primary care, vaccines and screenings, including mammograms
- Placing community health workers in access clinics to connect patients with community resources to address social determinants of health
