- $306.9 million spent. Adventist Health Physicians Network (AHPN) is a California medical foundation that provides physicians' opportunities to improve patient care coordination, enhance quality initiatives and creates greater physician alignment while successfully operating in the environment of health care reform. AHPN provides quality medical healthcare regardless of race, creed, sex, national origin, handicap, age, or ability to pay. Although, reimbursement for services rendered is critical to the operation and stability of AHPN, the organization recognizes that not all individuals possess the ability to pay for essential medical services. Adventist Health's vision is to enhance the health of the communities where we live and serve by engaging our communities and our patients in a new definition of and partnership for personal community health. In keeping with this commitment to serve all members of the community, the following coverage will be considered when individuals who need health care cannot afford to pay: - Free care and/or subsidized care - Care to persons covered by governmental programs at/or below cost - Health/wellness activities and community education programs Working with providers, AHPN delivers a more integrated, seamless, and affordable approach to caring for patients and their communities. Not only does AHPN provide low-cost care to individuals covered by government programs, and those unable to afford healthcare, it also helps patients find and access private and governmental resources for healthcare benefits. Adventist Health's mission statement of living God's love by inspiring health, wholeness and hope is coupled with a vision to transform the health experience of our communities through collaborative programs, community investments and community outreach. We are inspired by the healing ministry, as represented by the life of Jesus Christ, and believe we are called to live out our mission intentionally in the communities we serve. In the small towns, suburbs, and inner cities we serve, we continue our journey to provide quality healthcare until every person made in God's image has experienced the best health today, hope for tomorrow, and God's love that endures forever.
