Central Health Spotlight
Mission Moment: Kelsi Creek
Kelsi Creek thought affordable health care didn’t exist, until she found the Health Alliance for Austin Musicians (HAAM) and got coverage through Sendero Health Plans. That support gave her peace of mind and keeps her making music in Austin’s vibrant scene. “Having somebody genuinely care about you, care about your health, and want to see you be healthier and more successful is super impactful, and the only reason why I stay here in Austin.”
What is Central Health?
Central Health, Travis County’s hospital district, is building a comprehensive, high-functioning health care system for residents with low income who need it most. The district’s Health care Equity Plan, adopted in early 2022, is guiding up to $700 million in investments to close the gaps that persist throughout the safety-net health care system – in primary care, specialty care, dental and behavioral health, hospital-based care, and post-acute transitions of care.
