Business & Community Healthcare Partnership (BCHP)
The number of people in the Yuba-Sutter community served through conventional health care (insurance) is relatively small compared to the rest of the state and nation. BCHP is committed to improving access to quality health care in our community.
It was for this reason that Sutter North Medical Foundation elected to form this collaborative partnership enabling businesses and individuals alike to make a difference in our community.
What is the mission of BCHP?
The mission of the BCHP is to work together to provide education and support for the future of health care in the Yuba-Sutter community.
How does BCHP make a difference?
The membership works together to address health issues related to our community. BCHP members are committed to finding ways in which to fill health care voids. They are also committed to spreading the word about programs which are in place that may be of help to the under-served. At the end of each year, BCHP also makes a donation to one or several local health care programs in need of funding.
How does BCHP raise funds?
All funds are raised solely through membership fees.
What are the membership fees?
There are four different levels of membership: diamond, platinum, gold, silver, and bronze. Diamond = $925 & up; Platinum = $750.00 per year; Gold = $425.00 per year; Silver = $250.00 per year, and Bronze = $175.00 per year. These annual contribution levels make it possible for any business or professional to particpate. Levels of giving may be changed at any time, as a donor's situation changes.
