Bringing down the barriers to wellness and recovery
With your help, we can usher in a new era for health care that prioritizes what we all want: access to high-quality care, preventative measures, lasting wellness and outstanding value. Much of our commitment to our communities addresses the non-medical factors affecting patient outcomes.
When they get a challenging diagnosis, many of our patients struggle to make ends meet. Cone Health understands the stress that financial challenges can cause — and we know that stress is a barrier to recovery. In addition, our care providers know that 80% of what makes their patients healthy are factors outside clinical care, which is why support from licensed clinical social workers, registered dietitians, spiritual companions, healing arts programs and other resources is so important.
One of the most distressing health challenges we face is the complex issue of behavioral health disorders and drug addiction. Programs like Adrienne's Fund mobilize community members around finding local solutions to a problem that's reached a national crisis point.
Donors can also provide comfort and hope to community members facing disease through services like Patient Assistance Funds and Alight Integrative Care. Every day, we see the difference that nutritional guidance, spiritual care, the healing arts, financial support and other supplemental programs can make. Our grateful patient stories prove that donors can be there in life-changing ways.
Together, we can solve barriers to recovery and ease a patient's journey to wellness. Below are a few of our most critical funds designed to focus on support in times of challenge. If you are ready to make a gift now, visit our donate page.
