  ABOUT THE TEAM
  Health Services monitors and attends to the health needs of Alliance members and communities. All of our departments maintain a proactive stance when it comes to promoting access to effective, quality care in our service areas. We recognize that each Alliance member is an individual with their own health care needs. Those needs can range from preventative check-ups to prescriptions to case management and more - and often a combination of these factors. At the same time, we track the overall health of our communities from a bird's-eye view and, when necessary, take action in concert with local providers and agencies.
