THE HISTORY OF CORE HEALTH PARTNERS, CHP
Core Health Partners started as Florida Based Affiliate of Community Health Partners, CHP.

CHP originally formed in Des Moines, Iowa by a group of YMCA professionals who are credited with designing, building, and operating the nation’s first medically integrated YMCA (Clive, Iowa). This YMCA facility operated with their own National Provider Identifier (NPI) and first used the term “YMCA Healthy Living Center”, a title is now commonly used among YMCAs.

Community Health Partners led the clinic to community movement in 2017 when they spread their clinical practices into a handful of YMCAs in Iowa and in a little less than a year the decision was made to open the Core Health
Partners in Florida. The Florida operation was led by a former YMCA CEO.
