📄 NEW WHITE PAPER RELEASE

Compassion Health Care is proud to share a new white paper authored by our CEO, William Crumpton:

“Expanding Access through Urgent Care Service Line Implementation: Lessons Learned from the FQHC Frontline.”

This publication highlights nine years of experience implementing one of the first FQHC-operated urgent care models in the country, showing how urgent care can expand access while strengthening the medical home, not replacing it.

If you’re interested in rural health innovation, FQHC sustainability, or improving same-day access to care, this resource is for you.
