Care Harbor – Healthcare for those in need

Care Harbor is about caring for those who need it most!

zPaper is partnering with Care Harbor, the Salesforce Foundation, and other volunteer organizations to bring healthcare to those who need it, but can’t afford it. For the fourth year in a row zPaper participated in Care Harbor LA. It is one of the largest free health clinic events held in the US. At the event volunteers deliver medical, dental, vision, and follow-up care to thousands of families. These families are often uninsured, under-insured and at-risk of serious medical issues. zPaper’s technology provides the event with registration and medical data collection technology. We also provide real-time analytics. Patients, volunteers and press seeking more information can download the Care Harbor app on iTunes.

Care Harbor Provides Care for the Under-served

Over 50 million Americans don’t have health insurance. Many more have no dental or vision coverage. Even more cannot afford their high deductibles. Care Harbor is responding to this enormous need on three fronts.

First, they provide free care on a massive scale. They do everything from eye exams to tooth extractions. They see as many people as possible in just four days.

Second, they offer extensive prevention and education resources. Many medical conditions can be avoided so they work to educate people how they can prevent larger problems. Part of the education process is to inform people of new insurance programs that are available as part of the Affordable Care Act. Stations will be provided where individuals may enroll in the Covered California program.

Third, they work with local organizations to provide follow up care for the patients they see. The impact of the event does not end with the exam or procedure. Care Harbor gets at least 25% of the people they see into a follow-up exam.
