The Value + Impact of Health Centers: New Infographics and Supporting Data
As we face the prospect of a changing health care landscape, driven by discussion of a potential repeal of the Affordable Care Act, a rollback and potential block-granting of Medicaid, and loss of Section 330 grant funding, many PCAs and health centers are actively communicating their value to legislators and other stakeholders. The story of what health centers bring to their communities can be told along the following domains:
- Employment and Economic Impacts
- Savings to the Health Care System
- Access to Care
- Comprehensive Coordinated Care
- Preventive Care and Chronic Disease Management
Capital Link recently created customized Value + Impact infographics and supporting data for PCAs, consortia, and HCCNs in California, Tennessee, Maine, Arizona, and Arkansas to help demonstrate health centers’ value statewide, within counties and within federal congressional districts. A sample is shown below.
We’ve also developed customized infographics illustrating the projected impact of a rollback to pre-ACA levels of Medicaid eligibility and insurance subsidies, and cuts to federal operating support.
