Omni Community Health | LifeCare Family Services

What Omni Community Health | LifeCare Family Services does

Omni Family of Services is a multi-state human services agency headquartered in Nashville, Tennessee, founded in 1991 as Omni Visions. The organization operates 45+ office locations across five states (Tennessee, Kentucky, North Carolina, Indiana, and Ohio) and is structured as a 100% employee-owned entity through an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP). Its core business spans two integrated service lines: child welfare (foster care, adoption, intensive alternative family treatment, independent living academy) and behavioral health (outpatient mental health, community-based mental health programs including FITT and Adaptive Family Services, family preservation, and intellectual disability services).

The organization's service delivery model is built on evidence-based, trauma-informed clinical practices, notably Trust-Based Relational Intervention (TBRI) and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT). Services are delivered via physical offices, in-home and community-based settings (parks, schools, homes), and telehealth for psychiatric medication management and therapy sessions. The platform is operated through core operating subsidiaries (Omni Visions, Omni Community Health, Omni Family Institute) and regional state entities (Indiana, Kentucky, North Carolina, Ohio, Tennessee), with additional adjacent entities under the 3LS holding company (HopeNation, 3LS Solutions, I Am Next).

Revenue is generated primarily through state child welfare agency contracts (Department of Child Services) and Medicaid/Medicare reimbursement, supplemented by sliding-scale fees and self-pay. The agency accepts multiple Medicaid managed care plans across operating states (Aetna, Anthem, Humana, Molina, Wellcare, Caresource, Buckeye, Optum/UHC, Amerihealth Caritas). Pricing for foster care is structured on per-diem rates based on level of care, while outpatient mental health operates on monthly and pay-as-you-go billing cadences. Foster parents receive monthly reimbursement to cover child-specific costs. The go-to-market combines state agency referrals, community-based outreach, weekly online prospective foster parent information sessions, and content marketing.
