HEALTHY OPPORTUNITIES PILOT

  • Can we help people stay healthier
    and save money in the process?
  • Could a place to live
    reduce doctor visits?
  • What if healthy food
    replaced health insurance claims?
  • Would rides to work
    prevent rides to the doctor?
  • What if a loving embrace
    erases emergency room visits?
  • transforming North Carolina’s
    approach to Medicaid
