HEALTH REFORM HUB
As the nation moves forward to implement a fundamental overhaul of the American health care system, Community Health Centers will play a critical role in making the health reform vision a reality. Health center staff, boards and advocates will need to stay informed about the important changes in law and how it will impact the community health delivery system and patients.
This Hub serves as a clearinghouse for the latest information about health reform and health centers, including updates on key legislative and regulatory issues, fact sheets, as well as tools to help health centers implement health reform.
