Health centers are stronger together, and we need your input!

In preparation for upcoming policy discussions on health center funding, coverage changes, and the 340B program, the National PCA Hub, @NACHC, and @adv4commhealth have united to gather on-the-ground insights.

We invite your health center to contribute to the "Understanding the Sustainability Constraints Impacting Health Centers" survey.

Only aggregate survey data will be shared for advocacy, and only one response is requested per health center.

Survey closes Oct. 16 👇

OH is helping lead the charge to strengthen Medicare access! We thank Rep. @michaelrulli for introducing the bipartisan CHC REBASE Act (H.R. 10398). We’re also grateful to @RepGregLandsman and @RepDaveTaylor for co-sponsoring this important legislation and standing with CHC!

[Michigan Primary Care Association @michpca]

Thank you, Secretary Kennedy, for highlighting Community Health Centers like Crescent Community Health Center. From preventing and managing chronic disease to primary care, behavioral health, dental care, nutrition, and more, CHCs help Americans live healthier lives.

[Secretary Kennedy @SecKennedy]

Community health centers like Crescent Community Health Center in Dubuque, Iowa, represent the future of American health care: primary care, dental care, behavioral health, nutrition, pharmacy, and preventive care—all under one roof.

Under President Trump, we’re expanding this model to help Make America Healthy Again.

During yesterday's Fly-In, NACHC CEO @KyuRheeMD was thankful to meet with @RepDebDingell, a longtime supporter of Community Health Centers who just introduced the CHC REBASE Act of 2026 to modernize Medicare reimbursement and improve seniors' access to care. #ValueCHCs

[NACHC @NACHC]

🚨@RepMichaelRulli & @RepDebDingell introduced a bipartisan, comprehensive Medicare bill to streamline PPS reimbursement and protect affordable, efficient primary care for seniors at CHCs. Urge your representative to support the CHC REBASE Act! https://t.co/zCrhqfx5Sn #ValueCHCs

[NACHC @NACHC]

Thank you, @RepMichaelRulli. We couldn't agree more. Seniors deserve access to high-quality care close to home.

[Rep. Mike Rulli @RepMichaelRulli]

Community health centers are the backbone of rural healthcare in Ohio's 6th District. In communities across eastern Ohio, they are often the only option families and seniors have. The federal government should be making it easier to keep those doors open, not harder

That is why I am proud to have introduced the bipartisan H.R. 10398, the CHC REBASE Act with 10 of my colleagues.

Thank you Reps: @RepDebDingell @RepDaveTaylor @RepTroyCarter @RepGusBilirakis @RepGregLandsman @CongressmanGT @RepBarragan
