Neighborhood Health Plan of Rhode Island (Neighborhood)
Neighborhood is a not-for-profit 501c3 health maintenance organization (HMO) insurance company accredited by the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA). Founded in partnership with Rhode Island’s Community Health Centers in December 1993, the organization is governed by a 17-person board.
We served our first 1,490 members in 1994, and by 2000, we grew to 50,000 members. Starting in November 2013 through the introduction of the Affordable Care Act and state leadership’s decision to extend coverage to more Rhode Islanders, Neighborhood has significantly increased its membership, revenue, and staff.
Today, Neighborhood—with nearly 650 employees and $1.6 billion in revenue—serves one out of every five Rhode Islanders with more than 220,000 members.
