The remainder is our operating margin. This is what’s left over after paying the bills, as savings for future projects and needed investments. As a nonprofit we must invest all of our margin back into the organization, enabling us to keep our rates down and deliver high-quality, affordable health care services, and improve the health of our members and the communities we serve.
