Report Confirms Community Health Centers Lower Health Care Costs

November 13th, 2009 ·

NACHC recently posted a new report on the cost-savings that stem from the presence of Community Health Centers stating:

“A new report from Avalere Health, a highly-regarded health care research and economic analysis firm, finds that Community Health Centers (CHCs) reduce utilization and spending for other, costlier types of care, including emergency room and inpatient hospital care. Those studies comparing health care expenditures for patients of different provider types find that CHCs are associated with lower health care spending.”
