Service Contracts
The Camarillo Health Care District Board of Directors is committed to enhancing the quality of life for area residents through partnerships and collaborations that bring services to the community that might not otherwise be available. These partnerships are called Service Contracts and represent agreements with various health services entities to provide health and wellness opportunities that might otherwise be unavailable for at-risk populations within District boundaries.
