Community Health Impact Report

Main Line Health's inaugural Community Health Impact Report highlights the System's collective commitment to improving the health and well-being of the communities we serve. We take pride in being a trusted partner in the neighborhoods we serve across Philadelphia and its suburbs. The report showcases our unwavering commitment to providing safe, high-quality, equitable and affordable care while working with our communities.

This work is the true power of collaboration — coming together with you, our neighbors, to tackle shared health challenges and create lasting solutions. Our two-step approach begins with listening and learning from communities to understand their unique health needs. From there, we partner with local organizations to drive meaningful change and improve outcomes.
