COPE Health Solutions

With Keck funding, COPE Health Solutions is providing diagnostic testing to 580 uninsured and low-income patients suffering from cardiac disease via a mobile echocardiogram service and training primary care physician “champions” to identify warning signs, make appropriate referrals to specialists at County/USC Medical Center, and manage follow-up care. Patients are served by community clinics in Central and West Los Angeles that are members of the Camino de Salud (Healthy Road) Network, a public-private partnership managed by COPE Health Solutions. This one-year project is part of a larger County effort to better integrate primary and specialty care for uninsured patients in preparation for health care reform. COPE Health Solutions is a non-profit organization dedicated to assuring accessible, culturally sensitive health care services to underserved populations.
