Northwest Health Care was funded for two years (2023 – 2025) to improve annual visits for women at their clinic. Read on below to see what their project is! The Empowerment Through Prevention Initiative aims to empower women to take control of their healthcare through preventive efforts.

Northwest Health Care is a Title X(ten) clinic in Cody and Powell, Wyoming. They provide annual wellness exams on a sliding fee scale, meaning that patients are charged on their ability to pay – oftentimes, that rate is zero.

With this initiative, they will work to increase annual wellness exams for women 18-44 who live in the Big Horn Basin through increasing advertising efforts, a small incentive program for those who receive their annual wellness exam, a reminder call, text, and postcard campaign, and by helping women navigate the current healthcare system if more testing is needed.
