Outreach Community Health Centers

What Outreach Community Health Centers does

Outreach Community Health Centers (OCHC) is a Wisconsin-based nonprofit 501(c)(3) Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) founded in 1982, originally as Healthcare for the Homeless. Headquartered at 220 West Capitol Drive in Milwaukee, the organization operates a second clinic in Racine (opened January 2026 on the Ascension All Saints Hospital campus) and serves as the only FQHC in southeast Wisconsin with a special designation to serve people experiencing homelessness. It delivers integrated outpatient care across five pillars: primary care, behavioral health, dental, pharmacy, and community services, supplemented by a Mobile Health Unit that conducts screenings and care navigation at shelters, supportive housing programs, food pantries, and meal programs (including the St. Benedict the Moor community meal site serving roughly 90,000 hot meals annually).

OCHC's service mix includes primary care, behavioral health, chronic disease management, dental services, prenatal care, OB/GYN, podiatry, vaccinations, well-child visits, on-site lab services, an in-house pharmacy, and telehealth. Care delivery is supported by the OCHIN electronic health record system with a MyChart patient portal, used for telehealth and patient engagement. Satellite sites include the Salvation Army Medical Clinic (free care for uninsured/underinsured adults) and a Seal-A-Smile school-based dental sealant program. The organization holds NCQA Patient Centered Medical Home recognition, FTCA coverage, and 501(c)(3) status, and is governed by a community-led board with no parent company or private-equity ownership.

The business model is the standard FQHC economics stack: cost-based reimbursement from Medicaid/Medicare, insurance billing for insured patients, federal Section 330 grants, 340B drug pricing, and a sliding fee scale for uninsured patients based on family size and income. No one is denied services due to inability to pay. GTM is direct-to-patient through fixed clinics, walk-in appointments, and mobile outreach, with partner referrals from Froedtert/MCW, Ascension, C.H. Mason Health Clinic, and community organizations. Revenue is not publicly disclosed.

Expansion highlights5 records

Direct peers

• Progressive Community Health Centers: Milwaukee-based FQHC providing primary, behavioral, and dental care to underserved populations. Directly comparable to OCHC in mission, patient mix, and services, and competes for the same Medicaid and uninsured patients in the Milwaukee market.
• Sixteenth Street Community Health Centers: Long-standing Milwaukee FQHC offering primary care, behavioral health, and community services to a largely Hispanic underserved population. Closest direct peer on integrated community health model and federal funding model.
• Milwaukee Health Services, Inc. Federally Qualified Health Center operating multiple clinic sites in Milwaukee with primary, dental, behavioral, and pharmacy services. Competes head-to-head with OCHC for FQHC patients in overlapping Milwaukee service areas.
• Family Health Center of Marshfield: Large multi-site FQHC system serving rural and underserved communities across Wisconsin. Comparable in FQHC reimbursement model and integrated services, with a similar mix of insured, Medicaid, and uninsured patients.
• Boston Health Care for the Homeless Program: National leader in healthcare for people experiencing homelessness with strong FQHC designation. Directly comparable in mission, mobile/outreach delivery model, and trauma-informed care for housing-insecure populations.
• HealthNet (Indianapolis): Indianapolis-based FQHC system with a dedicated homeless services program, mobile outreach, and integrated primary/behavioral/dental/pharmacy services. Closely mirrors OCHC's combination of fixed FQHC sites plus mobile/community outreach.

Broad incumbents

• Ascension Wisconsin (Advocate Health): Large regional health system that hosts OCHC's Racine FQHC on its All Saints campus. Broader incumbent with overlapping primary care capabilities and a key strategic partner rather than direct competitor.
• Froedtert & the Medical College of Wisconsin: Major academic health system in Milwaukee and a community partner of OCHC. Competes indirectly for primary care patients while also serving as a referral, residency, and community health partner.

Emerging players

• C.H. Mason Health Clinic: Community-focused clinic now under OCHC operational oversight. Comparable as a small primary care provider serving uninsured/underinsured populations, but operates at a smaller scale and is being integrated into OCHC's network.

Others

• National Association of Community Health Centers: Industry association representing FQHCs and Look-Alike centers nationally. Adjacent ecosystem player that influences FQHC policy, funding advocacy, and operational best practices relevant to OCHC's operating environment.
