on Success, 2002-2007
Increasing Access to Health
Care in the Nation's Most Needy Communities
1,200 communities with new or expanded
access to care
16 million people receiving needed
care
Health Centers work in communities, providing
access to high quality, family oriented,
comprehensive primary and preventive health
care, regardless of patients' ability
to pay.
The President's Health Center Initiative
has substantially increased both the number
of communities with access to care and
the number of people able to get the care
they need.
More
about the President's Health Center
Initiative
Health centers provide comprehensive
primary care services without regard
for patients' ability to pay and
charge for services on a sliding
fee scale.
