During the conference, we joined health center leaders from across the country to advocate for:
• Updates to the Medicare Prospective Payment System (PPS) to ensure fair reimbursement for Health Centers caring for Medicare patients
• Protection of the 340B Drug Pricing Program, which allows Community Health Centers to reinvest drug savings into patient services
• Expanded federal funding for Community Health Centers
• Identifying food insecurity in the exam room and integrating nutrition into primary care to prevent and manage chronic disease
• The “Triple Double” strategy to strengthen primary care by doubling investment, patients served, and workforce nationwide.
These policies directly impact our ability to provide comprehensive, culturally responsive care to the communities we serve.
