Meet Ashlee: Supporting Women’s Health in Fort Wayne

 

Women’s health is a cornerstone of family and community well-being. It encompasses everything from preventive screenings and reproductive care to chronic disease management and mental health support. Access to quality, affordable healthcare allows women to live fuller, healthier lives—and insurance plays a vital role in making that possible. 

As we recognize the importance of women’s health, we’re proud to spotlight one of Bill Hartman’s daughters and one of the professionals making a real difference in this field—Ashlee Carter, MSN, CNM, APRN.
