Uniting our partners in health
Menu
The Palmetto Health Collective was formed to bring together patient advocacy organizations in South Carolina to share and collaborate on the work and missions of our organizations, including our success and the barriers we face in serving our members. This is a culmination of many years’ collaboration. Our desire is to better connect healthcare advocacy organizations, research universities, state government and healthcare agencies in South Carolina to address the many health-related barriers individuals and their families still face today living with chronic conditions and rare diseases. The consortium will strive to bring awareness in addressing gaps in accessing treatment and healthcare coverage, as well as other barriers, that hinder those affected within South Carolina to live quality lives. The PCH meets virtually each month on the second Friday at 11:00am with members, partners, and supporters, and gathers in person as opportunities present.
