Corporate Ambassador Resource and Employer Solutions (CARES)

A direct connection between your business and the region’s leading health system.

CARES was created with local employers in mind. Our goal is simple: to help your employees stay healthier — and help your organization control rising health care costs.

We do this by bringing UPMC expertise directly into the workplace through screenings, education, coaching, and coordinated employer solutions.

CARES currently partners with hundreds of employers and supports approximately 100,000 employees across Central Pennsylvania.
