Harvard Pilgrim Health Care

 

Collaboration. Empathy. Resilience. Action

In uncertain times, Maine’s nonprofit community has continued to show up for the individuals and communities in Maine that are most in need of their support. While the past few years have presented challenge after challenge, they’ve also shown us the strength and ingenuity of Mainers.

Bill Whitmore, Vice President, Harvard Pilgrim Health Care

As a local, not-for-profit health insurance provider, Harvard Pilgrim Health Care provides health benefits to more Maine businesses than any other health insurance provider in the state (2021 Financial Results for Health Insurance Companies in Maine). We understand what it takes to operate nonprofit organizations like yours, and we also understand the immense amount of pressure that your organizations have felt throughout the pandemic, and now, during this period of economic uncertainty fueled in part by an extraordinary inflation environment.

Added to this pressure is your commitment to keeping your workforce healthy. For all of us at Harvard Pilgrim Health Care, helping to support the health and wellbeing of our members and our communities is at the core of our business. And as your neighbors, we have a vested interested in ensuring that communities, businesses, nonprofits, and individuals throughout Maine are empowered to live healthier lives.

Our health plans are crafted to meet the needs of Mainers and we’ve been on the forefront of offering enhanced benefits to address increased health care demands and diverse needs. But our call to action goes beyond insurance coverage. Through our Point32Health Foundation, we’ve provided $1.5M to community organizations throughout Maine in 2021, and $1.93M in COVID-19 response grants in our Maine communities since 2020. These investments have gone to local community organizations and non-profits across our state, reaching into our northern communities, who often face greater economic instability, geographic isolation, generational poverty, and less access to medical, dental, and mental health care. We recognize that the needs across Maine are widely varying, which is why we will often work with you to tailor support on a local level. We also are proud to partner in alongside you and your teams in the work as well, with our team offering over 105 volunteer hours in 2021 supporting many of Maine’s nonprofits.

We believe we can have the highest impact on the community by working together.

Long before the pandemic, Harvard Pilgrim was there for you, and we’ll continue to be there in the future. But it’s during these times we are reminded of how important it is to look out for each other, and to take care of those who need it the most.

Harvard Pilgrim is proud to be your trusted local partner in Maine. And I’m honored to work for a local not-for-profit company that is committed to improving the quality of health — and life — throughout my home state.
