The industry’s leading tech-enabled and human-led, health equity
solution, OnMed today announced its first South Florida location in
partnership with Overtown Youth Center (OYC Miami). OYC Miami is a
pioneering partner and key focal point in OnMed’s broader
healthcare access strategy for South Florida.
OYC Miami fosters hope, promotes lifelong learning, and provides
wraparound services to bridge the socio-economic gaps for youth and
families in its communities. The addition of the OnMed CareStation
will improve access to convenient and affordable healthcare, offer
a unique learning opportunity to improve health literacy, and serve
as the center’s newest entry point for sustained care.
Tina Brown, OYC Miami CEO said, “The introduction of the OnMed
CareStation is one more way OYC Miami delivers on its commitment to
provide high-quality services that bring positive change and have a
ripple effect in our community that lasts for generations. The
CareStation is especially significant to our holistic approach; it
is part of a continuum of care offered at OYC Miami and will help
close the gap in access to healthcare among the underserved across
Miami.”
“While this partnership represents an expansion of OnMed’s
footprint in South Florida, more significantly, the alignment of
OYC Miami’s mission and values with ours makes this relationship
extremely fulfilling,” said OnMed CEO, Karthik Ganesh. “We are
proud to be accepted into the OYC community and commend Tina Brown
and other supporters across Miami who are committed to helping
solve health access inequalities in our country.”
