Exclusive Medical Services Funded for GRIC Members
Wednesday, August 16, 2023
Funding received from the GRIC General Council will allow Gila River Health Care to continue offering important exclusive services to GRIC members. This critical support provides for many services, including eyeglasses, hearing aids, alternative therapies (chiropractic, acupuncture, massage therapy) and orthodontic care (dental braces). These programs are not funded by the Indian Health Services and require independent Community-sourced funding. We historically have called these Tobacco Tax funds. GRIC members can be assured that our current services will continue without interruption for the upcoming year.
On behalf of the Board of Directors and Executive Leadership team, representing the nearly 2,300 employees, Gila River Health Care wishes to express our gratitude to the GRIC Executive Leadership and General Council for their continued support, and confidence in our team to lead these important programs. In particular, we wish to recognize Councilmen Anthony Villareal, Sr. (District 6) and Devin Redbird (District 7) for their guidance and counsel; Treasurer Gary Mix for his collaborative efforts; and our colleagues at Gila River Resorts & Casinos, especially CEO Kenneth Manuel, for their generous donation in support of the programs.
We appreciate the ongoing efforts of Community leadership as they navigate challenging economic times to prioritize the health and well-being of the Community.
Respectfully,
Gila River Health Care
