Welcome to our 2017 Annual Report. We are so blessed to lead this unique
health care organization. Together, the more than 95,000 staff of Catholic Health
Initiatives serve an incredible variety of communities across 17 states, from small
towns to major cities. In each, we strive to be a beacon of hope and healing, and
enhance the well-being of the community and its people.
For 21 years, CHI has been dedicated to a mission of creating healthier communities.
Each year, we've advanced our enduring mission through clinical and operational
initiatives; grant and investment programs that help care for the most vulnerable
people; and advocacy that promotes health care access and coverage for all.
Now, we are on the threshold of some of the most exciting and challenging
opportunities that CHI has ever faced. We're making significant progress toward
new and transformative models of care that promote total health of body, mind
and spirit. We continue to innovate to meet consumer demands for convenient
access and exceptional service. And, as you'll see in this report, we're taking a
creative and disciplined approach to ensuring that we meet our ambitious goals.
Thank you for your support and interest in our journey.
