Mission and programs · 2022

• IN THE EARLY 1980S, A GROUP OF LAWNDALE RESIDENTS DETERMINED THAT THE COMMUNITY DESPERATELY NEEDED A LAUNDROMAT AND A HEALTH CENTER. WORKING THROUGH LAWNDALE CHRISTIAN CHURCH, BOTH THE LAUNDROMAT AND LAWNDALE CHRISTIAN HEALTH CENTER (LCHC) WERE FOUNDED. LCHC, NOW A FEDERALLY QUALIFIED COMMUNITY HEALTH CENTER, SERVES SIX ECONOMICALLY DISTRESSED COMMUNITIES (NORTH LAWNDALE, SOUTH LAWNDALE, EAST GARFIELD PARK, WEST GARFIELD PARK, ARCHER HEIGHTS, AND BRIGHTON PARK) ON CHICAGO'S WEST SIDE. LCHC WORKS OUT OF SEVEN SITES TO PROVIDE ACCESS TO A FULL SPECTRUM OF AFFORDABLE, HIGH QUALITY PRIMARY HEALTH CARE SERVICES TO LOW-INCOME PATIENTS. LCHC HAD CLINICAL VISITS OF APPROXIMATELY 216,000, WHICH INCLUDED APPROXIMATELY 182,000 MEDICAL VISITS (FAMILY PRACTICE, INTERNAL MEDICINE, OBSTETRICS/GYNECOLOGY, PEDIATRICS, AND CARDIOLOGY), APPROXIMATELY 17,000 DENTAL VISITS, APPROXIMATELY 11,500 BEHAVIORAL HEALTH VISITS AND APPROXIMATELY 5,200 OPTOMETRY VISITS. APPROXIMATELY 22% OF THESE VISITS ARE PAID FOR ON A SLIDING SCALE BY PATIENTS WHO HAVE NEITHER PRIVATE NOR PUBLIC HEALTH INSURANCE COVERAGE. ANOTHER 61% OF CARE IS PAID FOR BY MEDICAID, 6% BY MEDICARE, AND 11% BY OTHER.

• AT LCHC, THE HEALTH SUPPORT SERVICES DEPARTMENT STAFF MEMBERS COLLABORATE WITH THE PRIMARY CARE PROVIDERS TO ADDRESS PATIENTS' SOCIAL AND BEHAVIORAL HABITS THAT LIMIT THEIR ABILITIES TO ACHIEVE OR MAINTAIN GOOD HEALTH. THE DEPARTMENT CONSISTS OF TWO MAJOR AREAS: CHRONIC DISEASE AND MATERNAL AND CHILD HEALTH. MATERNAL AND CHILD HEALTH PROGRAM PROVIDES CASE MANAGEMENT TO MOTHERS AT-RISK FOR COMPLICATED PREGNANCIES AND PROVIDES EDUCATION ON PARENTING AND RELATIONSHIPS. THE CHRONIC CARE PROGRAM EMPHASIZES DISEASE MANAGEMENT, HEALTH AND NUTRITION EDUCATION, AND PHYSICAL FITNESS IN EIGHT KEY AREAS INCLUDING CHRONIC DISEASES SUCH AS ASTHMA, DIABETES, HIV, AND CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE THAT AFFECT SO MANY PATIENTS. THE CHRONIC CARE PROGRAM WAS CREATED TO FOCUS ON PROVIDING EDUCATION AND SELF-MANAGEMENT TO PATIENTS WITH THESE THREE CHRONIC DISEASES. THE PROGRAM'S STAFF INCLUDES EDUCATORS, A REGISTERED DIETICIAN, A NUTRITIONIST AND OUTREACH WORKERS WHO PROVIDES SCREENING AND EDUCATION THROUGHOUT THE COMMUNITY. THE CHRONIC CARE MODEL, IMPLEMENTED UNDER THE AUSPICES OF HRSA'S BUREAU OF PRIMARY HEALTH CARE, CONSISTS OF SIX INTERRELATED COMPONENTS (COMMUNITY LINKAGES, HEALTH SYSTEMS, SELF-MANAGEMENT SUPPORT, DELIVERY SYSTEM DESIGN, DECISION SUPPORT, AND CLINICAL INFORMATION SYSTEMS) THAT PROMOTE QUALITY HEALTH CARE FOR PEOPLE LIVING WITH CHRONIC ILLNESSES. THE STANDARD MODEL FOR PRIMARY CARE IS A VISIT-BASED MODEL THAT EMPHASIZED THE TREATMENT OF ACUTE SYMPTOMS IN THE CONTEXT OF A ONE-ON-ONE CLINIC VISIT BY A PATIENT WITH A PROVIDER; THIS MODEL FOCUSES ON THE CHIEF PRESENTING PROBLEM. IN A PCMH MODEL OF CARE, A TEAM OF HEALTH PROVIDERS (PHYSICIANS, NURSES, PSYCHOLOGISTS, HEALTH EDUCATORS, ETC.) COLLABORATE TOGETHER WITH PATIENTS TO IMPROVE THEIR HEALTH AND ENCOURAGE OVERALL WELLNESS. THE PCMH MODEL, WITH ITS EMPHASIS ON CARE COORDINATION, IS ESPECIALLY APPROPRIATE FOR LOW-INCOME PATIENTS WITH CHRONIC DISEASE AND FOR POPULATIONS EXPERIENCING HEALTH DISPARITIES. CHRONIC CARE EDUCATORS PLAY A KEY ROLE IN THIS MODEL.

• PHARMACEUTICAL SERVICES ARE PROVIDED TO THE SAME POPULATION FILLING OVER 180,000 PRESCRIPTIONS ANNUALLY. THESE SERVICES ARE AVAILABLE ONLY TO LCHC PATIENTS THEREBY GIVING OUR RESIDENTS ACCESS TO 340B PRICING WHICH IS THE LOWEST POSSIBLE COST FOR A GIVEN MEDICINE. THE PHARMACY TEAM ALSO PROVIDES A COUNSELOR WHOSE PRIMARY RESPONSIBILITY IS TO COORDINATE THE COMPLETION OF APPLICATIONS THAT VARIOUS MANUFACTURERS PROVIDE AS PART OF THEIR OWN CHARITY CARE PROGRAMS WHICH ALLOWS THOSE PATIENTS WHO QUALIFY FOR FURTHER REDUCED OR FREE MEDICINE.

• IN 2005, LCHC OPENED THE LAWNDALE CHRISTIAN FITNESS CENTER, THE ONLY FITNESS FACILITY IN THE COMMUNITY. THE CENTER OFFERS LOW-COST MONTHLY MEMBERSHIPS FOR COMMUNITY MEMBERS TO ACCESS CARDIO AND RESISTANCE EQUIPMENT, AN AEROBIC STUDIO, AND ADULT AND YOUTH CLASSES DESIGNED TO IMPROVE AND MAINTAIN HEALTH. IN 2009, THE FEDERAL HEALTH RESOURCES AND SERVICES ADMINISTRATION AWARDED LCHC A $10 MILLION COMPETITIVE GRANT TO BUILD A NEW HEALTH CARE FACILITY. THE NEW SITE INCLUDES A FITNESS CENTER WITH AN INDOOR RUNNING TRACK, 65 CARDIOVASCULAR MACHINES, 44 STRENGTH MACHINES, AND FREE WEIGHT STATIONS, AND 3 GROUP EXERCISE ROOMS. LCHC BELIEVES THAT THE FITNESS PROGRAMS ARE NECESSARY ADJUNCT TO THE CARE IT PROVIDES IN THE EXAM ROOM. LCHC'S OVERALL GOAL IS TO CREATE A HEALTHY COMMUNITY IN WHICH THE SOCIOECONOMIC AND RACIAL BARRIERS WHICH CONTRIBUTE TO HEALTH DISPARITIES ARE ELIMINATED. THE STRATEGY LCHC HAS ADOPTED FOR CARRYING OUT ITS MISSION AND VISION CONSISTS OF PROVIDING CLINICAL SERVICES FULLY INTEGRATED WITH WELLNESS SERVICES IN AN INNER-CITY ENVIRONMENT. IN THE TRADITIONAL MODEL, VISITS TO A HEALTH PROVIDER ARE PASSIVE FROM A PATIENT'S PERSPECTIVE. IN LCHC'S MODEL, COMMUNITY MEMBERS ARE ACTIVELY INVOLVED IN THEIR OWN HEALTH AND THE HEALTH OF THEIR FAMILIES.

Listed in Part VII

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
