About us
Amid clinical workforce shortages, rising healthcare costs and ongoing concerns about inequity, IMPaCT Care’s mission is to advance health equity by unlocking the power of the grassroots community health workforce. Having proven the model and grown through guerrilla efforts to serve 50 client organizations across 20 states, we’re now ready to scale. We are a completely remote company, backed by leading healthcare investors, and advised by senior leaders from Amazon, Kaiser Permanente, and the University of Pennsylvania. IMPaCT is the leading evidence-based intervention in the U.S. for addressing health inequity and the social determinants of health. IMPaCT’s standardized, scalable program selects altruistic people from local communities, trains them as CHWs and connects them with people who are facing health inequity. We then support CHWs as they help their clients improve their lives and health. We have transformed the effectiveness of the CHW workforce by reimagining each step, from how to identify the right CHWs, to how to train, develop, manage, and empower them with technology and evidence-based best practices. We’ve achieved outcomes frequently believed to be out of reach: across multiple randomized controlled trials, our team has demonstrated dramatic improvements in cost, health and patient satisfaction – $2,500 saved per patient in year 1, improved mental health, 66% of hospital days compared with matched controls and a 94% net promoter score.

At IMPaCT, one of our values is to “learn, constantly.” That’s why we conducted three RCTs of our structured Community Health Worker intervention, and it’s why we participated in a PCORI-funded implementation evaluation of our structured CHW program at five sites across the country. Drumroll please! The findings - https://lnkd.in/gWCQ3cGi - demonstrate that we can achieve RCT-level results at scale. Three sites demonstrated high fidelity and achieved significant reductions in utilization, and all are continuing and expanding their programs. At Ballad Health, an integrated community health improvement organization serving 29 counties of the Appalachian Highlands, patients who received IMPaCT had 29% fewer hospital stays compared with similar patients who didn’t receive IMPaCT. These impacts illustrate the transformative power of community health workers in a variety of settings. We are thrilled to work with more than 50 partners in 20 states to deliver results like these at scale. Medicare coverage of CHW services represents important progress in ensuring that CHW services are accessible and sustainable, but there is more work to be done. We appreciate the work Senator Casey has done to advance access to CHW services through the CHW Access Act, and we hope to see more state Medicaid agencies taking action to ensure that evidence-based CHW services are available to the communities that need them most.
