What Matters for Health Centers
The high-quality, cost-effective, and comprehensive services health centers provide make them a valuable investment for federal, state, and local governments alike. Grants and other government funding opportunities enable health centers to continue delivering valuable care to the uninsured and underinsured; to open their doors in some of our most vulnerable communities; to address public health crises such as the proliferation of opioid use and the Zika epidemic; and to serve all patients, regardless of ability to pay, with quality health care.
