HealthCred Care proves that healthcare access and fiscal accountability can go hand in hand. We support vulnerable populations while relieving financial pressure on local governments—demonstrating that better access, stronger oversight, and measurable results do not have to be tradeoffs.
​
As the U.S. healthcare landscape places greater emphasis on cost discipline, program integrity, and state and local responsibility, HealthCred Care stands out as a practical, high-impact model for reform. Our corrections-based coverage access model operates within existing law to reduce waste, empower counties, and ensure eligible individuals can activate benefits already funded on their behalf.
​
HealthCred Care improves outcomes for justice-involved individuals who are often uninsured, overlooked, and cycling through emergency care, incarceration, and untreated chronic conditions. By enabling access to affordable health coverage from within correctional facilities, we support earlier intervention, continuity of care, and safer, more stable reentry—addressing root causes rather than downstream costs.
​
Importantly, this impact often extends beyond the individual. In many cases, family members—including spouses and children—may also qualify for coverage. Expanding access helps stabilize households, reduce reliance on fragmented services, and strengthen community health—multiplying the value of a single point of access.
How HealthCred Advances Health, Accountability, and Better Outcomes.
Strengthens Local Control and Budget Accountability.
HealthCred helps counties reduce correctional healthcare pressure by enabling eligible individuals to activate affordable coverage already funded under existing law. This shifts avoidable costs off county budgets while allowing facilities to maintain operational control of their processes.
Built for Enrollment Integrity
Our proprietary technology, uses verification controls and audit ready documentation to reduce improper enrollments:
-
In-Person enrollments inside the facility on secure devices
Eligibility supported by booking data and documentation checks
Complete audit trail for review and compliance
Promotes Prevention and Long-Term Savings
By enabling eligible individuals to access care earlier, HealthCred helps reduce avoidable emergency utilization, unmanaged chronic conditions, and untreated behavioral health needs—supporting safer reentry and lowering downstream costs for counties.
Expands Access for Underserved Populations
Many people cycling through jails are low-income and lack consistent coverage. HealthCred closes that gap by helping eligible individuals activate affordable coverage—often for the first time—improving continuity of care and reducing avoidable strain on local safety-net systems. In many cases, family members may also qualify, strengthening household stability and long-term community health.
Supports Rural Communities
Rural facilities often carry disproportionate medical cost burdens and have fewer local healthcare resources. HealthCred Care helps reduce uncompensated care by enabling eligible individuals to activate coverage in their own name—supporting continuity after release and easing pressure on rural health systems.
Improves Reentry Stability and Continuity of Care
By enabling coverage access and continuity of treatment after release, HealthCred Care supports reentry stability and helps reduce avoidable utilization and repeat system involvement.
Advances Fairness, Accountability, and Human Dignity
HealthCred Care helps ensure eligible individuals—including many who are pretrial and not yet convicted—can access affordable coverage and continuity of care. This supports recovery, stability, and a better chance to return to the community healthier and better prepared to contribute.
