Health Partnership Clinic

What Health Partnership Clinic does

Health Partnership Clinic (HPC) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit Federally Qualified Health Center founded in 1992 and headquartered in Olathe, Kansas. It operates four clinic sites across Johnson, Miami, and Franklin counties — Olathe, Paola, Ottawa, and a pediatric-only Shawnee Mission location on the AdventHealth campus — plus an administrative office. The clinic delivers integrated medical, dental, and behavioral health care (including substance abuse treatment) to children, adults, and families, with particular focus on uninsured and underinsured populations. Roughly 58% of patients are uninsured and 30% are enrolled in Medicaid/KanCare; HPC provides over $3 million in uncompensated care annually and operates a sliding-fee discount program keyed to household size and income.

HPC's distribution model is multi-modal: fixed clinics, a Pediatric Walk-In Clinic, telehealth virtual visits (HIPAA-compliant video, accessible via smartphone, tablet, computer, or landline), a school-based portable dental program across 20+ schools, school-based behavioral health in Olathe and Shawnee Mission districts, and a Mobile Integrated Health Team run in partnership with the Olathe Fire Department and Olathe Health. Patient-facing technology includes the eClinicalWorks/Healow patient portal (practice code GHEICA) for lab results, prescription refills, and appointment management, plus ePay Healthcare for billing and HelloSign/DocuSign for digital intake forms. Fundraising and donor CRM runs on Bloomerang, with an annual Opening Doors Luncheon and Snowflake Streak walk as flagship events.

Revenue mechanics combine federal FQHC grant funding from HRSA, patient fees (including sliding-fee and self-pay), Medicaid/KanCare reimbursement via partnerships with UnitedHealthcare Community Plans, Aetna Better Health of Kansas, Sunflower Health Plan, and Healthy Blue Kansas, Medicare and most commercial insurance, donations and grants from foundations (REACH, United Way, Sunflower, Kansas Health Foundation, Delta Dental of Kansas Foundation, Oppenstein), and state-funded gambling dependency reimbursement. The clinic is governed by an independent board, holds FTCA deemed facility status, NCQA PCMH recognition at two sites, and NCQA Behavioral Health Integration recognition. CEO Amy Falk leads the organization alongside a board that includes longtime FQHC transition architect Jeffrey O. Ellis.
