About Us

A Community Partnership for Care

All of us at Packard Health work extremely hard to ensure that all members of our community have access to the resources they need to lead healthy lives. And, in turn, we depend on our community to help us maintain the resources necessary for continuing our work. Packard Health is Washtenaw County's only non-profit private medical practice that offers continuous access to health care to all members of our community, regardless of their ability to pay. It is what sets us apart from local for-profit physicians groups, free clinics, and hospitals: a dependable relationship with a family doctor, for all.

As the needs in our community intensify during challenging economic times, our commitment remains firm. Our work is vital to our patients, their families, and the Washtenaw County community. While most commercial practices limit their patient mix to well below five percent uninsured or poorly insured, nearly fifty percent of Packard's patients are uninsured or poorly insured. Recent trends in health care and in the economy have tipped this balance, driving more community members to the clinic without insurance coverage. To offset the costs of uncompensated care, Packard Health has built partnerships with government and community organizations and individuals. Community partnerships are becoming more indispensable than ever.

"Packard Health is truly a community partnership for care. We depend on the generosity and foresight of many, many individuals and organizations to extend the best care possible to all in our community. We are grateful for their partnership–and yours!"
Kimberly Kratz, MSW, MPH, Packard Health Executive Director
