As a healthcare provider serving Tribal and Urban Indian communities, you face complex challenges that require thoughtful, innovative solutions. From overcoming barriers to access to navigating cultural sensitivities, you must find ways to improve care delivery while respecting the unique needs of your communities.
The Automated Healthcare Practice powered by Greenway Health provides a framework to tackle these challenges. By leveraging advanced technology, automation in healthcare, and culturally sensitive solutions, this approach empowers you to enhance patient outcomes and operational efficiency.
1. Tailored Healthcare Solutions
A one-size-fits-all approach doesn’t work for Tribal and Urban Indian healthcare. Each community has specific health needs, shaped by its history, geography, and culture. Tailored healthcare solutions focus on delivering patient-centered care that aligns with these distinct needs, enabling you to address challenges with greater precision and impact.
For instance, tools like Greenway’s Intergy® EHR are purpose-built to support Tribal health centers. With features for regulatory reporting, such as National Data Warehouse (NDW) and Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA) compliance, these tools help you stay focused on patient care instead of being bogged down by administrative tasks.
Investing in tailored solutions enables you to better address the needs of your individual communities while improving efficiency and satisfaction.
2. Improved Access to Care
Accessibility is a significant challenge for Tribal and Urban Indian communities, particularly those in rural or remote locations. Telehealth has become a transformative solution, allowing your patients to receive care from the comfort of their homes.
Our tools, such as Greenway® Patient Connect and Greenway® Patient Portal, address barriers like transportation challenges and long travel times by providing virtual access to essential services like test results, appointment scheduling, and direct communication with providers.
With the integration of these tools into a single platform, Greenway eliminates the need for disparate systems, making healthcare more accessible and convenient for you and your patients.
Our patient-first design prioritizes breaking down the barriers to healthcare inequity, enabling you to deliver inclusive care that builds wellness across underserved communities.
“No other EHR system that was demonstrated had been successfully deployed in a tribal healthcare system except for Greenway’s Intergy.”

3. Compliance and Reporting
For Tribal and Urban Indian health centers, staying compliant with complex regulatory requirements is critical for maintaining funding and delivering high-quality care. From GPRA standards to NDW reporting, accurate and thorough documentation is crucial.
Greenway’s Intergy EHR integrates compliance-focused tools directly into your clinical workflows, allowing you to track, analyze, and report required data. This guarantees you meet federal standards while providing actionable insights into patient care trends.
Compliance solutions like these allow you to focus on delivering exceptional care rather than navigating regulatory complexities.
4. Efficient Care Coordination
Your patients often see multiple providers across various specialties, making care coordination essential for achieving the best outcomes. Efficient care coordination ensures that every provider involved in a patient’s care is aligned, reducing the risk of miscommunication or missed diagnoses.
Greenway’s tools, including Greenway’s Patient Portal, enable seamless information sharing among providers and patients. This approach supports the development of comprehensive and aligned care plans, whether your patient is managing chronic conditions or receiving preventative care.
Our integrated workflows reduce the administrative burden on you, allowing you to spend more time with patients rather than navigating disparate systems or resolving miscommunications.
5. Cultural Sensitivity and Understanding
Cultural sensitivity is a cornerstone of effective healthcare in Tribal and Urban Indian communities. You must respect and align your care with the cultural values, beliefs, and traditions of the patients you serve.
For over a decade, Greenway has collaborated with Tribal and Urban Indian health centers to deliver solutions that honor traditions and build trust. From onsite demonstrations to customized tools for patient engagement, Greenway’s commitment to culturally sensitive care is evident in every partnership.
Our shared passion for patient care drives us to develop solutions that address healthcare needs and reflect the cultural priorities of the communities you serve. By fostering culturally respectful care, you can build stronger relationships with your patients, ensuring healthcare is both equitable and effective.
6. Leveraging Technology for Better Care
Technology is transforming healthcare, and Tribal and Urban Indian health centers are no exception. From AI-driven analytics to patient engagement tools, technology equips you to deliver more efficient, effective, and personalized care.
Greenway’s patient engagement solutions help you monitor at-risk communities, measure intervention success, and adjust care plans proactively. Features like automated reminders and secure messaging simplify the care process for both you and your patients, improving outcomes while reducing administrative workload.
Advanced technology allows you to focus on growing wellness rather than just treating illness, supporting a healthier future for your communities.
Partnering for a Healthier Future
Addressing the unique challenges faced by Tribal and Urban Indian communities requires a combination of tailored solutions, cultural sensitivity, and advanced technology. With a proven track record, Greenway delivers tools that improve workflows, elevate care delivery, and drive financial success.
As Desirea Minick, Deputy CEO of Wind River Family & Community Healthcare, shared, “No other EHR system that was demonstrated had been successfully deployed in a tribal healthcare system except for Greenway’s Intergy.”
Since partnering with Greenway, Wind River has achieved greater efficiency in managing patient data and care coordination. The intuitive workflows and advanced reporting tools have resolved issues such as unreliable data and incomplete patient visit tracking, while also strengthening their revenue cycle. Greenway’s hands-on support during the transition ensured a smooth implementation and laid the foundation for sustained growth.
