Windrose Health Network

What Windrose Health Network does

Windrose Health Network (WHN) is a non-profit Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) founded in 1996 in Trafalgar, Indiana, delivering integrated primary and preventive healthcare to underserved, low-income, uninsured, and immigrant populations across central Indiana. The organization operates six health center sites spanning Marion, Johnson, Bartholomew, and Hendricks counties, supplemented by two WindRoseRx pharmacy locations, a 38-foot mobile health unit, telehealth services, and a patient portal built on eClinicalWorks' healow platform. Clinical offerings span family medicine, pediatrics, prenatal care, behavioral health, chiropractic care, dental care, chronic care management, HIV/PrEP, and pharmacy services, with cultural specialization for Indianapolis's 35,000+ Burmese-Chin immigrant community via an embedded behavioral health partnership with the Chin Community of Indiana.

WHN's business model is a hybrid FQHC funding stack: federal HRSA Health Center Program grants and FTCA malpractice coverage, Medicaid/Medicare/HIP reimbursements, sliding-fee-scale patient payments calibrated to income, pharmacy transaction revenue, and donor-funded assistance through the Extra Mile Fund. Patients access services via direct scheduling at health centers, telehealth virtual visits, mobile-unit deployment, or the healow portal, with eligibility navigators embedded in the workflow to assist with insurance enrollment and financial assistance. Distribution is direct-to-consumer across four Indiana counties with no resellers, no enterprise sales motion, and no patient acquisition paid marketing; growth is driven by community referrals, cultural-competency reputation, and a sustained NCQA PCMH Recognition with Distinction in Behavioral Health Integration, plus 2024 HRSA Gold Health Center Quality Leader status placing WHN in the top 10% of U.S. health centers for clinical quality.
