CHIPS Health & Wellness Center is a nonprofit organization that provides healthcare and social services for the underserved and uninsured in the St. Louis region. At CHIPS, clients are defined not by their illness, but by their ability to attain wellness.
CHIPS' clinical team is made up largely of volunteers, including doctors, dentists, nurses, health educators, community outreach workers, social workers and complementary health specialists.
Service is provided to anyone who needs care regardless of their ability to pay for services. Ninety percent of the patients CHIPS cares for each year are not covered by any type of insurance. CHIPS patients are those who would otherwise fall through the community’s healthcare safety net.
CHIPS' hallmark is preventive health programs that utilize a holistic approach to meet the unique needs of an uninsured and underserved population. CHIPS collaborates with neighborhood businesses, schools, churches and others to bring health education, health screenings and assessments to a high risk, predominately African American population.
