What HAPPI Health does

In 2025 the organization launched the HAPPI Rx 340B Drug Pricing Program with on-site pharmacy construction beginning September 2025 and preferred pharmacy partnerships with Walgreens (live) and Walmart (forthcoming), expanded behavioral health capacity through a new dedicated facility, opened a Decatur location, and announced a Cavalry Hill Clinic in an underserved Huntsville neighborhood. Technology infrastructure is built on the Athenahealth patient portal for scheduling and records management and Stripe for donation processing, supplemented by a third-party AI-based website accessibility tool that enforces WCAG 2.1 AA compliance. The organization is governed by a patient-majority board of directors, led by CEO Michelda Johnson, CMO Dr. George Kyle, and newly appointed CFO Geeta Berry.
