Playing a key role in a bright new future.
Healthcare reform is placing Federally Qualified Health Centers in a new role that’s full of promise, yet fraught with challenges. They’re now envisioned to be at the center of a more rational, more cost-effective, more patient-centered healthcare system. And yet, they still face day-to-day challenges as the first point of contact for some of the most vulnerable, complex and high-risk patients.
