HEALTH FINDER

What is Health Finder?

Health Finder links un/underinsured residents of Gwinnett, Newton and Rockdale counties to quality, affordable healthcare resources.

Those without health insurance often have less access to care, receive poorer quality of care, and experience worse health outcomes. They delay or go without needed care because of cost. They are less likely to seek preventative care and services for chronic diseases or major health conditions. Hence, their health and well-being are at much greater risk.

Health Finder helps narrow the gap and connect our un/underinsured residents to quality healthcare providers that are ready and willing to care for them so they can live their best lives.

Community Health Assessment / Community Health Improvement Plans

Community Health Assessments (CHA) and Community Health Improvement Plans (CHIP) have been created for the three counties we serve.

The community-wide health assessment, which examines the county’s health status, is intended to help shape the collaborative efforts to improve the health of residents.

The community health improvement plan describes how the Health Department and a variety of community partners will work together to improve the health of the population through various projects and programs.

Access each county’s CHA and CHIP below:
