ONE Health Ohio was presented with the 2021
National Quality Leader Award: Behavioral Health from the Health Resources and Services
Administration (HRSA). This award is the Gold Medal Award for being one of the top quality
performers in the country and is given to only the top 1% of all health center organizations. ONE
Health Ohio was 1 of 17 organizations in the United States to receive this incredible honor.
ONE Health Ohio also received the Health Center Quality Leader Bronze Award, the COVID

“ONE Health Ohio has served over two million patient visits, improving and saving many lives
since it was established in 1986,” states Dr. Ronald Dwinnells (Chief Executive Officer). “This
is an incredible honor for ONE Health and to each and every one of our staff members for
continuing to work hard for our patients. Our CQI (Quality Team) is outstanding and Dr. Kowal,
our Chief Medical Officer who leads the medical team, has done an outstanding job working
with the team to create our programs.”
HRSA programs provide equitable health care to those who are economically, medically
vulnerable, and/or geographically isolated. Programs include participants who have HIV/AIDS,
are pregnant women, and unable to access high quality healthcare. In addition, HRSA also
supports the training of health professionals, assists in the distribution of providers to areas
where they are needed most, and improvements in the delivery of health care.
