Description

The Health Center Program, as authorized by section 330 of the Public Health Service (PHS) Act, promotes the development and operation of community-based primary health care service systems in medically underserved areas and improves the health status of medically underserved populations. The purpose of this activity is to continue to support comprehensive primary and preventive health care service delivery to areas where the existing sectinon 330 grantee's continuation application was not approved. It is expected that each application submitted to serve one of these areas will represent a clear focus on maintaining access to care and reducing health disparities identified in the existing community and target population. All applicants are expected to demonstrate compliance with the requirements for the specific type of health center for which funding is requested. Requirements are found in section 330(e) of the PHS Act for Community Health Centers; section 330(g) for Migrant Health Centers; section 330(h) for Health Care for the Homeless Centers: and section 330(i) for Public Housing Primary Care Centers.
