COMMUNITY

Proudly rooted in Tribal heritage.

Our company's roots are deeply entwined with the tribal background of CEO, John Lynch, a member of the Red Cliff Band of Lake Superior Chippewa. This heritage is not only a source of pride but also influence the company's values and approach to business.

As an American Indian owned company, we take great pride in working with tribal health communities to improve both the patient and provider experience. Not only do our consultants help improve systems and processes but we support self-governance through strategy, experience, and best practices.

Clinical & specialty care departments for Tribal health.

These organizations and departments highlight the holistic, community-driven model of tribal healthcare, where services extend far beyond clinical care to include cultural, environmental, and social support. Tribal health systems are uniquely structured, often intertwining healthcare delivery with tribal governance, community outreach, and traditional healing practices. This creates operational complexities not typically found in standard clinics.
