Great Lakes Bay Health Centers

Great Lakes Bay Health Centers (formerly Health Delivery, Inc.) began as a very small migrant health clinic in 1969, when the Saginaw County Health Department received a $75,000 grant to provide health care to farm workers. Today, Great Lakes Bay Health Centers makes up the largest of Michigan Health Center organizations. Over 50,000 patients a year receive a wide array of services such as such as medical, dental and behavioral health care in more than 30 locations throughout the Great Lakes Bay Region. We are dedicated to ensuring our patients have access to quality, comprehensive, and integrated health and dental care by offering many support services, by being open at times that are convenient, and by offering transportation to and from appointments. Everyone is welcome regardless of insurance coverage or ability to pay. Our Mission The mission of Great Lakes Bay Health Centers is to provide excellent health care to individuals and communities, especially those who are underserved, uninsured, or underinsured. The services provided are sensitive to the needs of the community, are not based on ability to pay, and are offered without regard to criteria such as race, religion, national origin, sexual orientation, or gender identity. Several of GLBHC’s sites are designated as Patient-Centered Medical Homes (PCMH) through NCQA and BCBS of Michigan. This philosophy is transforming care through coordination and communication. These medical homes lead to higher quality care and lower costs. We form partnerships between individual patients and their personal clinicians. Each patient is part of a provider-led team who coordinates treatments across the health care system. This PCMH model is just another way we are providing quality healthcare for everyone.
