Bill overview
This bill aims to help health centers improve the health of their patients by addressing social factors that impact well-being, such as access to transportation, food security, and economic stability. It allows the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) to provide supplemental funding to health centers to create ‘community transformation hubs’ – networks of local organizations – that tackle these social determinants. These hubs would work to improve health outcomes by addressing issues like neighborhood safety and systemic racism. The bill also requires HRSA and CMS to develop guidance on how to sustain these hubs after the initial funding ends.
