"HPRN has been instrumental in getting the Medical Access Program (MAP) pilot off the ground. HPRN provided project management to design, build and roll out a new HIPAA-compliant website to screen for Oregon Health Plan, track the uninsured, and quantify the value of the providers' services, as well as program evaluation."
