Access Endangered: Profiles of the Medically Disenfranchised: The report profiles health center patients who are struggling and the communitites that are suffering from record levels of unemployment and increasing poverty. They are the people who are most at risk to losing access to care under proposed budget cuts and changes to the Medicaid program. For every $1 million in federal funding cuts, health centers lose the capacity to serve over 8,200 patients. The NACHC report demonstrates that these are the patients that are most in need and vulnerable to budget cuts.

Community Health Centers as a Local Prescription for Improving Quality and Lowering Costs: The issue brief tells the story of the health center payoff and underscores how health centers are a proven solution of a nation searching for better returns in health care delivery. Only with continued investment can they double in capacity, nearly triple the savings they bring to the health care system, and accumulate two and a half times the amount of economic growth.
