Family Health Care is proud to be recognized as a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC). FQHCs are present in over 8,000 rural and urban communities across America. They have a successful track record second to none in the delivery of affordable quality care to more than 20 million people. They play a significant role in lowering health care costs and producing savings for the nation’s health care system while providing quality health care that is accessible to all.
FQHCs offer the same major traits:
They provide quality health care to all people regardless of insurance status or income level.
They are staffed by highly competent health care professional teams.
Their fees are based on the patient’s ability to pay.
They are community controlled by patient majority boards of directors.
The patient-centered medical home is a way of organizing primary care that emphasizes care coordination and communication to transform primary care into “what patients want it to be.” Medical homes can lead to higher quality and lower costs, and can improve patients’ and providers’ experience of care.
AAAHC Medical Home accreditation is a symbol of prestige and a mark of excellence honoring the fact that FHC has adopted the best practices and complies with nationally recognized standards of care.
