What North Coast Health does
Mission
A faith based charitable clinic providing quality medical care and healing to those most in need, regardless of ability to pay. We believe health care is a basic human right and the inability to pay should never be a barrier to care for anyone. North Coast Health (nch) opened our doors in 1986 to help uninsured invidivuals access medical care, regardless of their ability to pay. Since 2013, nch has received the highest level of recognition by the national committee for quality assurance (ncqa) as a patient centered medical home (pcmh), level 3. In 2014, in response to the affordable care act and medicaid expansion, nch transitioned to a charitable clinic to be able to expand access to care to the uninsured, underinsured and individuals with medicaid and medicaire. In 2018, a total of 7,654 services were provided to 1,598 unduplicated patients. As a pcmh, nch provides primary care including prevention and wellness, chronic disease management and the care of minor illness and injury to I
As stated on its FY2018 Form 990.
Program
North Coast Health's healing ministry exists to extend a hand to help those struggling with affordability of, and access to, needed health care services including primary care and behavioral health care. Nch services- including prevention, wellness, diagnosis, treatment, chronic disease management, specialty referral, counseling, prescription assistance- and collaborative efforts with community health and human service organizations makes it possible for all people to receive the care they need, regardless of their ability to pay. Providing these services to the most economically vulnerable and medically underserved, improves the health of the individual, his/her family, the workforce and the community- while lowering health care costs.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2017 to 2018, from $707k to $741k (+5%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Government-grant reliance: 2017 5% · 2018 4%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 2 of the last 2 reported years ran a deficit.

Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.
Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2022: the base narrowed from 10 funders to 1 funder, grant income fell $275k → $10k.
2 of 14 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 22% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
From the IRS filings of NORTH COAST HEALTH’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How concentrated its funding is
NORTH COAST HEALTH leans on a few funders — its largest provides 30% of grant income and the top three 66%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
78% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund NORTH COAST HEALTH.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 38% · 2018 58% · 2019 93% · 2020 91% · 2021 100% · 2022 100% — growing more concentrated.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How long its funders stay
0% of NORTH COAST HEALTH's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 57% give in more than one year at all.
Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year. Measured to FY2022, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving — a funder cannot be counted as lapsed in a year most filers have not reached.
Where its funders are
98% of NORTH COAST HEALTH's grant income comes from Ohio funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $196k arriving through sponsors registered in 2 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
