Desert Healthcare District Desert Healthcare District is a local government agency committed to health in the Coachella Valley.

We believe every resident in our District deserves access to health education, disease prevention and comprehensive diagnostic and treatment services, and the opportunity to participate in District matters through access and input to the board. We support positive health system change via incorporating best-practice methodologies where possible; encouraging accurate outcome measurement by benchmar

king, monitoring and evaluation; supporting innovative new practices and programs; and fostering collaboration and partnerships.
