Meridian HealthCare

What Meridian HealthCare does

Meridian HealthCare is a non-profit 501(c)(3) integrated behavioral and primary healthcare organization founded in 1974 and headquartered in Youngstown, Ohio. The company delivers whole-person care through seven core service lines — primary care, mental health counseling, chiropractic care, acupuncture, addiction treatment (including 24/7 withdrawal management/detox at The Donofrio Center in Youngstown), an integrated pharmacy, and adolescent behavioral health — supplemented by specialized programs including Occupational Health, TASC (a partnership with the Mahoning Valley Criminal Justice System for offender chemical-dependency case management), M.O.M.S. (maternal opiate medical support), and a free Pain Self-Management Education (PSME) program.

The organization operates five physical locations across Youngstown and Warren, Ohio, and holds Joint Commission accreditation. Its core technology is the integrated care delivery model itself — the operational coordination of multiple clinical specialties under a single provider entity, supported by an Intelichart patient portal and a Doxy.me waiting room. Meridian's GTM is primarily direct-to-consumer (walk-ins at Donofrio 24/7, scheduled appointments, community outreach) with secondary channel partnerships via local employer occupational health programs and the criminal justice TASC program.

Revenue is generated through professional-services fee-for-service billing across all clinical service lines, third-party insurance reimbursement, patient payments (with a payment assistance program for uninsured/underinsured patients), employer occupational health contracts, and community donations. Customer segments span the general public, individuals with substance use disorders, adolescents, pregnant/postpartum women, employers, and the criminal justice system — a horizontally diversified patient base anchored in the northeast Ohio market.
