Happy #PrideMonth🌈! Savings from the 340B program help provide services such as transitional housing, access to behavioral health services, and affordable medications to all, including the LGBTQIA+ community. #ValueCHCs
340B funding helps vulnerable members of our community receive health care that they may not otherwise be able to get. 340B helps us to provide services to patients without using taxpayer money. Care coordination & transportation for example. #protect340B#340Bactionnow
#340B allows us to provide our communities with access to clinics, dental care, mental health services, etc. Low-income patients will suffer reduced access to affordable medicine unless we protect the federal 340B program. #Protect340B#340BActionNow#HamiltonCHN
My health center provides transportation, community/social workers, affordable medications and nutrition services to patients because of 340B. Without 340B these services could be reduced or eliminated! #340Bactionnow#protect340B@RepDanKildee
Thank you, @congressdotgov, for your continued support of Community Health Centers! Your support allows us to provide accessible, affordable, and culturally competent health care to communities throughout the US. Advancing Equity. Changing Lives. #ValueCHCs
Q2: What types of services/programs will be impacted at your health center if legislation is not passed to protect the 340B program?
#340BActionNow#Protect340
A1 The 340B program is crucial to health centers because it allows them to offer affordable medications for uninsured or underinsured patients. Health centers served more than 32,000 uninsured Nevadans in 2021. #Protect340B#340BActionNow
Under our federal grant, health centers are required to provide care to all individuals, regardless of their ability to pay. The #340B program enables health centers to fulfill their mission by reinvesting savings back into patient care. #Protect340B#ValueCHCs
Did you know the 340B program supports behavioral health services and provides access to affordable medications at Community Health Centers across the country?
Let's support our patients and #Protect340!
