Alliance Family Health Center

What Alliance Family Health Center does

Alliance Family Health Center, Inc. (AFHC) is a non-profit Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) headquartered at 1401 South Arch Avenue, Suite A, Alliance, Ohio, operating since October 1, 2016 after the transformation of Alliance Obstetrics, Inc. AFHC serves residents of Stark and Mahoning counties through an integrated delivery model that combines Family Practice and Walk-in Primary Care, Obstetrics & Gynecology/Women's Health, Integrated Behavioral Health (including adult and child psychiatry, brief therapy, and substance use services), and an in-house Pharmacy operating under the federal 340B Drug Pricing Program. Care is delivered in person at the single Alliance clinic, via telehealth for virtual visits, and through extended weekday hours (Mon–Wed to 8 PM) for primary care, women's health, and behavioral health, with the pharmacy offering walk-up, drive-through, and delivery fulfillment.

The center's technology stack is built on industry-standard healthcare platforms rather than proprietary systems: eClinicalWorks (with the healow patient portal and mobile app) and NextGen EHR for clinical records, a telehealth platform for virtual visits, and an in-house pharmacy system supporting 340B pricing, medication therapy management, auto-flow refills, and medication synchronization. Administrative tools include PayPal for online bill payment, Google Forms for employment applications, and Microsoft Forms for the patient suggestion box. Quality and compliance infrastructure includes NCQA Patient-Centered Medical Home recognition, Age-Friendly Health Systems designation (IHI/AARP), Target BP GOLD+ 2025, Target BP Type 2 Diabetes GOLD 2025, Chronic Disease Self-Management CCC GOLD 2025, and ongoing HRSA FQHC reporting requirements.

AFHC operates on a community-based, direct-to-consumer model. Revenue is generated through fee-for-service patient care across its service lines, margins on 340B-priced prescription dispensing, federal FQHC grant funding, and an income-based Sliding Fee Discount Program that enables access for uninsured and underinsured patients. The organization accepts various insurance plans and offers same-day, next-day, and walk-in appointments, plus language/translation and transportation assistance. AFHC employs 11–50 staff including physicians, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, nurses, medical assistants, referral and financial eligibility specialists, and administrative personnel, with executive leadership comprising Amelia Kocher, MPA (Executive Director), Vincent Lee, MD (Medical Director), Amanda Nelson, MPH, LPN, CHPI (Chief Operations and Compliance Officer), and Steve Morgan (Chief Financial Officer), governed by an independent community Board of Directors.
