Pursuit Healthcare Advisors Makes another Philanthropic Donation to Increase the Primary & Holistic Care for the Uninsured
PHILADELPHIA, PA – February 9, 2017 — Pursuit Healthcare Advisors, LLC (Pursuit) announced today that they will be donating a minimum of $1,000 in 2017 to increase Population Health initiatives within a local community. In late 2016, after hearing an inspiring presentation by Dr. Mary Wirship, our first contribution of $500 was awarded to Community Volunteers in Medicine (CVIM) in support of their mission to “provide compassionate primary medical and dental care and health education to people who live or work in Chester County, Pennsylvania who lack access to insurance, in order to support their goals to lead productive, healthy, and hopeful lives.” CVIM’s patients are hardworking individuals who have no insurance and make less than 300% of the Federal Poverty Line.
Pursuit believes in the importance of primary care as an integral piece of our healthcare system and the role it plays in delivering quality care that improves health outcomes. Not only can effective primary care reduce the instances of hospitalizations and the use of acute care facilities, but available primary care can also promote health equity across disparate populations.
“We know that socioeconomic status has strong implications for a person’s overall health and wellness,” says Cyndi Vely Cahill, Managing Partner of Pursuit. “We are proud to support the immediate and sustainable impact CVIM provides to their population’s health. Pursuit recognizes and applauds the holistic approach to creating a medical home for the underinsured and working poor of Chester County, and we are proud to play a small role in supporting such a service.”
