A History of the Laurel Health Centers
The Laurel Health Centers can trace their roots back to the Blossburg State General Hospital, which began serving patients in 1891. When the Blossburg hospital closed its doors in 1972, local residents were determined to preserve access to care and founded North Penn Comprehensive Health Services (NPCHS). North Penn opened its first family health center in 1973 on the former hospital site and expanded to include behavioral health and substance abuse treatment services the following year.
Over the next two decades, North Penn opened primary care clinics in Mansfield, Wellsboro, Westfield, Elkland, and Lawrenceville. In 1988, North Penn entered into partnership with Soldiers + Sailors Memorial Hospital to form Laurel Health System, renaming its clinics to the Laurel Health Centers and Laurel Behavioral Health. In 2012, Laurel Health System affiliated with a Williamsport-based health system, now known as UPMC Susquehanna. The Laurel Health Centers elected to remain independent as federally qualified health centers to better care for vulnerable and underinsured patients on a sliding fee scale, but continues to partner closely with UPMC Wellsboro.
Laurel Health has been providing high-quality, patient-focused care throughout rural Tioga County and the surrounding communities for 48 years. Laurel Health consists of the Laurel Health Centers (seven family medicine / specialty care federally qualified health centers), Laurel Behavioral Health (outpatient behavioral health office), the Laurel Health & Wellness Center, Laurel Pediatrics, and two Laurel Dental offices in Lawrenceville and Blossburg, PA.
We are committed to serving all patients, regardless of their ability to pay. Our sites offer a sliding fee scale and 340b discounted pharmacy program to ensure all patients are able to receive the quality care they need with the compassion they deserve.
Our doctors, nurses, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, counselors, and office staff work together as a strong, experienced, and unified healthcare team dedicated to providing a great patient experience and expert care every time. The Laurel Health Centers, HRSA National Quality Award winners, offer convenient primary care and behavioral health services for the whole family throughout Tioga and Bradford Counties, including Blossburg, Elkland, Lawrenceville, Mansfield, Westfield, and Wellsboro, PA.
