Organizations can apply for an award of up to $4,000. They can use the award for programs that have “clear goals to improve the health or health care of a specific population,” Excellus, Central New York’s largest health insurer, said. 

It will consider programs that improve the health status of the community, reduce the incidence of specific diseases, and promote health education and further overall wellness.
