Why Florida Blue Foundation invests in HUF and its programs

Florida Blue Foundation’s Consumer Health Focus Area supports the provision of resources, information and programs designed to make it easier for underserved, underinsured or low-income individuals in Florida to find current and reliable health care services to manage their own health and well-being. As a recipient of the Foundation’s Consumer Health grant, HUF helps clients to learn, navigate, and enroll in health coverage for themselves and their families. HUF’s Te Ayudo program includes health screening and Health Options Workshops to inform clients of their health care options, learn how to successfully enroll in and utilize health care benefits and be empowered to effectively navigate the U.S. health care system to achieve health outcomes.
