“PIAM’s generous yearly contributions to Physician Health Services have helped us fund the position of our physician evaluation director, Wendy Cohen, MD. Before, it often took us two to three months to complete an evaluation. These days, we often complete this process in two to three weeks. PHS is extremely appreciative of PIAM’s mission-critical support for the health and well-being of Massachusetts physicians.” — Steven Adelman, MD, director, Physician Health Services
“PIAM’s contribution to the MMS and Alliance Charitable Foundation equaled 10 percent of our regional grants in fiscal year 2017. PIAM’s sustained giving over the years has made a difference in many peoples’ lives by supporting physician-led and charitable programs on substance use, mental health, and access to care.” — Corey E. Collins, DO, FAAP, chair, MMS and Alliance Charitable Foundation
“We are so very grateful for PIAM’s support of our golf tournament, enabling Community Health Center (CHC) of Cape Cod to provide evidence-based, wraparound programs and services that are not always supported by health insurance. These include care management, health education, individualized care plans for chronic diseases, and insurance enrollment. PIAM’s longstanding and generous support of CHC has allowed us to provide integrated health care services under one roof, including primary, behavioral health, dental, and eye care for all, regardless of ability to pay.” — Karen L. Gardner, chief executive officer, Community Health Center of Cape Cod
