AccessEscambia is dedicated to providing health care for the uninsured. Toward that end, there are three elements to its work:
1.) We incorporate technology into the medical records process so that the uninsured have a virtual medical home
2.) We work with private organizations to develop a health flex plan that would enable working families to buy a low-cost health insurance product without expensive and unnecessary amenities required by other insurance plans
3.) We work to develop a managed care arrangement for the most challenged in Escambia County, allowing the working poor to visit a family doctor for only a small co-payment.
AccessEscambia implements the recommendations of the Escambia County Health Care Task Force. This task force studies ways to provide health care for Escambia's 66,000 uninsured residents.
As part of our efforts to streamline services, we rely on our public health care system and charitable organizations, like WeCare, to continue their good work in serving the poor. We include them within a larger, more comprehensive system of care so that no one is left behind.
AccessEscambia is a non-profit organization directed by a diverse 10-member board that is made up of community leaders and health care professionals from all over Escambia County.
