Health Ministries Clinic

What Health Ministries Clinic does

Health Ministries Clinic (HMC) is a Kansas-incorporated, IRS Section 501(c)(3) non-profit Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) headquartered at 720 Medical Center Drive in Newton, Kansas, operating since 1991 with 51–100 employees across three clinical locations — the Newton main campus, a Newton dental clinic, and a Halstead satellite clinic — plus an in-house HMC Pharmacy with drive-thru and an HMC Mobile unit. Its mission is integrated delivery of primary medical, dental, behavioral health, and pharmacy services to patients of all ages in Harvey County and surrounding Kansas communities, including uninsured and underinsured individuals at or below 200% of the Federal Poverty Level via a sliding fee scale.

HMC's product surface is organized as a core platform — the Newton medical home offering primary care, chronic disease management, lab services, and diagnostic imaging (X-ray, CT, DEXA) — augmented by sub-brand locations (HMC Dental, HMC Halstead, HMC Walk-In Clinic) and supporting modules including the Healow-powered Patient Portal, HMC Pharmacy under the federal 340B drug pricing program, a Medication Assistance Program, Diabetic Education, and the HMC Med Kitchen culinary-medicine video series. Underlying technology is conventional third-party healthcare IT: an eClinicalWorks (eCW) Electronic Health Record with the Healow patient-facing portal and mobile app (iOS/Android) for 24/7 record access, Rx365 for pharmacy refills, Healow Pay for billing, and telehealth/virtual visit capabilities. Free patient transportation within Newton and a school-based dental screening program round out the access infrastructure.

HMC generates revenue from a mix of fee-for-service reimbursement from Medicaid, Medicare, CHIP, and private insurance; the sliding-fee scale for income-eligible patients; the 340B Pharmacy Program and Medication Assistance Program for pharmaceuticals; and federal HRSA Health Center Program grant funding under 42 U.S.C. 254b, supplemented by FTCA deemed-status liability protections and a GuideStar Bronze Seal nonprofit transparency credential. The organization is governed by a volunteer board (Chair Jeffrey Graber) and led by a full executive team — CEO Matthew Schmidt (LSCSW), CFO Paul Faber, and COO Tionna Botterweck, alongside medical, dental, behavioral health, pharmacy, nursing, quality, risk, and HR directors — with no equity ownership, no parent company, and no PE/VC/institutional investor involvement evidenced in the available materials.
