In 2022, we elevated the work of dei, by restructuring resources with plans to align and scale dei strategies across the providence family of organizations. We continue to execute on our integrated strategic & financial plan which clearly expresses our commitment and acceleration of this important work to address social, racial, and economic disparities in the communities we serve. Providence's social responsibility framework aims to deploy the assets of our system to support community health improvement, strengthen local economies and reduce our carbon footprint. We have implemented an environmental stewardship system strategy that encourages waste reductions, efficient energy and water usage, local agriculture partnerships, less toxic and fewer chemical use, and a reduction in carbon from travel. We have also held environmental stewardship as one of the top priorities for our leadership incentive program to ensure alignment and momentum continues. In april 2022, providence published its first environmental stewardship report, in which we reported 12 percent reduction in carbon emissions in seven key categories in our acute care facilities since our 2019 baseline. As of september 30, 2022, (the most recent data available), we have increased that reduction to 13 percent.program service accomplishmentscovenant Medical Group is a non-profit, tax-exempt Medical foundation that is certified under Texas law to employ physicians and practice medicine. It is owned by Covenant health system, but is self-governing in most aspects, other than fiscal matters. There is a board of 16 physicians who provide the oversight of the Group's strategic planning, policy development, recruitment and credentialing, quality improvement tasks, research, and Medical education activities. All of the board members are actively practicing within cmg. This self-governing aspect of cmg tends to make it quite physician-friendly in its policy development and planning in that the board members are immediately personally impacted in their own practice by their board decisions.who we are and what we do "caring for the people of our region" our region: Covenant Medical Group is headquartered in lubbock, Texas, the site of the southwest's preeminent Medical center between the dallas / fort worth metroplex and phoenix. With a county population of 250,000 and serving an area of 1.2 million people in the region, lubbock hasmany of the amenities of a larger metropolitan area, international airport, great shopping and restaurants, and excellent public and private schools, yet retaining a wonderful "small-town" atmosphere. Our health system's regional clinics are located throughout west Texas and eastern new mexico. Our regional clinic network contains several operationally different models. Some are directly owned and operated by cmg; some are rural health clinics in which cmg supplies its employed physicians to work for a rural hospital-owned facility; some are rural health clinics in which the physicians are independent contractors; and some are satellite clinic sites to which cmg subspecialists travel a few times per month. These regional clinics are integral to the provision of primary care services to their local communities, and also send substantial numbers of patients to lubbock for tertiary care that is not available locally.for more information on Covenant Medical Group go to: www.covmedgroup.orgfor more information on Covenant health system go to: www.covenanthealth.orgfor more information about providence, please visit www.providence.org
