Community Care Assessments, tailored to each customer's unique needs, extend beyond traditional assessment projects. We specialize in assisting plans as they navigate new markets, learning the intricacies of the environment and stakeholders for a comprehensive understanding.
Public health practitioners guide our approach and involve community representation at each stage of our research process.

We uplift the voices of community members with lived experience of health and social barriers and those dedicated to serving them in community-based service organizations.
CareLink
CareLink is a community health platform used to manage quality care coordination programs. Community partners can easily track performance with a single view into services, programs, and patients and clients in the community. Community Care Records are created to document, track, report, and, with client permission, share outcomes. Closed-loop referral management allows organizations to coordinate and track bidirectional referrals across the community – from any system or source - to improve communication, share decision-making, and build mutual trust in community health programs.
Testimonials
Activate Care powers so much of that collaboration to help improve patients’ lives through a shared care plan. Referral management helps us reliably delegate and track responsibility leading to far better outcomes for our community members.
Activate Care is a game changer, a tool that enables connectivity between multiple partners, all with a high volume of programs, and it gives the full picture of the individual to truly deliver whole person care. It reduces the burden on the entire system of care.
We see fewer complex needs patients in the ED, we discharge people faster, connect them to the community better, and see fewer cases present in the first place... Social services in general have been siloed. Activate Care has helped to flatten these silos and is opening up these worlds to each other.
“The [Path Assist] program has gotten me the resources that I need from transportation to mental health to food essentials, and helped me get in contact with people who I can't get in contact with. My CHW went above and beyond to help me as much as she could. She has been very helpful and very resourceful.”
