Community Health 360 VS Unite Us
Updated: April 2026 Reading time: 8 min Audience: CBO leaders, program managers
The Short Version

Unite Us is an enterprise referral network sold to states, MCOs, and health plans. Community Health 360 is a full operating system for the CBO itself — intake, screening, service planning, encounters, HRSN billing, multi-state Medicaid reporting, THW management, CRM, and audit logs — at a fraction of the price.

When to choose which

Choose Unite Us

You're funding the network

You are a state agency, MCO, or health plan that wants to fund a closed-loop social-care referral network across thousands of CBOs and don't need to run the day-to-day operations of any one CBO.

Choose CH360

You're running the CBO

You are a CBO (or coalition) that needs to actually run intake → screening → service plans → encounters → HRSN billing → state Medicaid reporting → audit, with built-in CRM and a price you can afford.

🤝 Better together

CH360 and Unite Us are complementary, not mutually exclusive. Many CBOs use Unite Us as a referral channel and CH360 as the operating system that captures the encounter, bills HRSN, and produces the state report. Inbound and outbound referrals from any network can be tracked inside CH360's referral module.
