Kenosha Community Health Center

What Kenosha Community Health Center does

Kenosha Community Health Center, Inc. (KCHC), operating under the brand Pillar Health, is a private, non-profit Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) founded in 1995 and headquartered in Kenosha, Wisconsin. The organization provides integrated medical, dental, and behavioral health services to individuals and families across Southeast Wisconsin, operating five clinic locations in Kenosha, Silver Lake, and Racine, supplemented by mobile care and telehealth delivery. Its service portfolio spans primary care, family medicine, pediatrics, preventive cardiology, immunizations, lab services, family planning, lactation consulting, prescription refills, general dentistry for adults and children, dental hygiene, and behavioral health (psychiatry and psychotherapy), with Pillar Navigation providing patient assistance on billing, insurance, and access.

The business model is that of a community health center rather than a commercial enterprise. Revenue is generated through fee-for-service billing to a defined set of payers: UnitedHealthcare, Medicaid, Medicare, Medicare Advantage, BadgerCare, and other private commercial and Marketplace plans, with a sliding fee scale for uninsured patients and discrete pay-as-you-go offerings such as $40 sports physicals. As an FQHC, the organization is eligible for HHS Section 330 grant funding, 340B drug pricing, Medicare/Medicaid cost-based reimbursement, and Federal Public Health Services (PHS) deemed status with respect to certain health-related claims. Patient engagement is supported through OCHIN's MyChart portal for appointment scheduling, medical record access, and provider communication. The 2025 HRSA Operational Site Visit (OSV) Badge certifies ongoing compliance with health center program requirements.

The organization is community-governed through a Board of Directors and a Leadership Team, with no parent company, no subsidiaries, and no public ownership. Recent strategic activity has centered on the 2025 opening of the Pillar Health Racine Clinic, which marked the first entry into Racine County, and on broadening the payer mix and delivery channels through telehealth, mobile care, and additional commercial payer acceptance. A 2023 relationship with Exact Sciences is recorded in funding event data with no disclosed dollar value, consistent with a corporate or grant partnership rather than an equity investment.
