NACHC has released an updated version of
America's Health Centers Fact Sheet with the latest UDS data for 2018.
This fact sheet is a great tool for talking about what health centers are, who they serve, their impact on patients, and the value they add to the healthcare system.
This webinar introduces a new HRSA product, A Guide for Rural Healthcare Collaboration and Coordination. Hear how rural hospitals, community health centers, local public health departments and other rural stakeholders work together to assess and address their rural communities' health needs. The webinar will highlight two innovative rural health organizations that have developed strategies to meet population health goals, address social risk factors, and improve health outcomes. It will also share solutions to support rural health organizations' financial viability and lessons learned.
