Commissioners approve three-year renewal with We Care Clinic
Summary
The board approved a three-year renewal with We Care Clinic — a contract that phases in a roughly $4 per-employee increase over three years starting July 1 — citing high local utilization and cost savings for county health services.
Warren County commissioners on Monday approved a three-year renewal of the county’s arrangement with the We Care Clinic, a partnership the board said has helped residents access care and reduced county health costs.
Board members reviewed the contract terms, which include gradually increasing the per‑employee rate by roughly $4 over the three‑year term beginning with the next fiscal year on July 1. Commissioners described the clinic as widely used by county residents and approved the renewal by voice vote.
The renewal is intended to preserve clinic services that county staff said help residents obtain preventive care and follow-ups, and that reduce pressure on county-funded medical services. Staff will finalize the contract documents and execute the agreement after the clinic returns an updated contract with the board’s recommended adjustments.
What’s next: County staff will sign the updated contract when returned by the provider and implement the new rates at the start of the next fiscal year on July 1.
