The Lanai Community Health Center provides high quality, comprehensive, culturally sensitive, holistic care for the entire community of Lanai. Whether insured, un or underinsured. No one is turned away.
Please sign this petition to tell your State and County Representatives that you are concerned about the current HHSC Bills (HB1112 and HB1075) and their affect upon our community. Before any changes are made, before LCH is leased to any other entity, HHSC needs to meet with the Lanai community and its health care providers to identify a mutually acceptable plan.
The LCH facility may be State-operated, but it was built by the dollars contributed by pineapple field laborers, in some cases, with payroll deductions of 50 cents a week. We must never forget their generosity and dedication in building this facility – and that it is indeed a “COMMUNITY” hospital.
SAMPLE LETTER FOR HEALTH CENTER PATIENTS:

Before any changes are made, before Lanai Community Hospital is leased to any other entity
The Lanai Community Health Center provides high quality, comprehensive, culturally sensitive, holistic care for me [and my family]. And the Community Hospital is an integral part of our community – not an afterthought extension of the HHSC Maui Region.
