The Indiana Primary Health Care Association (IPHCA) has named Managed Health Services (MHS) its 2010 “Corporate Partner of the Year.”

The award recognizes an IPHCA Corporate Partner that has demonstrated a strong commitment to IPHCA’s mission and vision in the following ways: participating in collaborative efforts to help high-risk populations in Indiana; fostering advocacy on behalf of access to primary care for high-risk populations in Indiana; or by providing significant resources for the work of IPHCA or an IPHCA member Community Health Center.

MHS works in partnership with community health centers on innovative outreach programs across the state to increase access to primary care for Indiana families enrolled in the state’s Hoosier Healthwise and Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) and, beginning in January 2011, the Healthy Indiana Plan. For example, MHS brings patients and doctors together through the “Health Check Health Day” program, designed to encourage and support the “medical home” and foster the primary care-patient relationship.

“We are pleased to announce MHS as our 2010 Corporate Partner of the Year”, said Phil Morphew, CEO of IPHCA. “MHS has proven itself to be a true partner to community health centers throughout Indiana, and we are looking forward to continuing and building on our long relationship of serving the health care needs of Hoosiers.”

“It’s truly an honor to win this award, especially because it highlights the strong partnership MHS enjoys with the community-based health centers IPHCA represents,” said MHS CEO Patrick Rooney. “It’s this partnership that empowers our members to positively impact their health. It also allows MHS to reach out to the community at large through health fairs, health education events, local community health center sponsorships and other important community initiatives.”
