Columbus Regional Healthcare System

Grant Overview
With an estimated population of 14,930 uninsured children, the community healthcare network and 16 counties surrounding Columbus, Georgia has been selected as a local CKF project site. This project, operating under the Columbus Regional Healthcare System, will use experience gained in previous PeachCare for Kids outreach efforts to coordinate existing programs, develop a system of convenient premium payment offices, and reduce the percentage of uninsured children using hospital based services.
