Comprehensive Care, Community, and Culture (C4P)-Ingalls

The Comprehensive Care, Community and Culture Program (C4P) aims to improve the overall health and well-being of patients in the program by addressing a wide range of medical and social needs. The C4P program builds off of the Comprehensive Care Physician Program, which offers patients at high risk of hospitalization a comprehensive care physician (CCP) who cares for them in both the hospital and the clinic.

In addition to receiving care from a CCP, C4P patients at Ingalls are regularly asked about a range of unmet social needs to help address a range of social barriers for patients.
