Mission

Charitable Healthcare Network's (CHN) purpose is to be the voice and connector for members by providing resources, education and advocacy to strengthen and ensure high quality health care for people who are vulnerable. See what we do.

Thousands of Ohioans are in need of healthcare they cannot access. Despite medicaid expansion many remain uninsured, cannot afford their high deductibles, or simply cannot find a physician accepting new patients. Members of the Charitable Healthcare Network exist to give those individuals the health care they need.
