The MIH/CP pilot program is an innovative project by the Brownsville Fire Department to better serve Brownsville residents identified as high emergency medical care utilizers, patients at-risk for hospital readmission and patients who call 9-1-1 for non-urgent medical issues.

The press conference will feature case studies to highlight the success of the program and seek opportunities for community partnerships.
