Authors analyze health care utilization of complex Medicaid managed care beneficiaries whose primary care providers (PCPs) were Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA)-funded health centers (HCs) versus three other groups: clinics not funded by HRSA, solo, and group practice providers.

Authors examined weight management counseling practices of Health Resources and Services Administration-funded health center (HC) providers for patients with overweight (POW) and obesity (POB) status, focusing on weight-related conditions, risk factors, and health care utilization.

Authors sought to examine specific care-seeking behaviors and experiences, access indicators, and patient care management approaches associated with frequency of emergency department (ED) visits among patients of Health Resources and Services Administration-funded health centers that provide comprehensive primary care to low-income and uninsured patients.

Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH) recognition is designed to promote whole-person team-based and integrated care. The goal of this paper was to assess changes in staffing infrastructure that promoted team-based and integrated care delivery before and after PCMH recognition in Health Resources & Services Administration (HRSA)-funded health centers (HCs).

Authors explore whether there are racial/ethnic differences in diabetes management and outcomes among adult health center (HC) patients with type 2 diabetes. They examined indicators of diabetes monitoring and care management.

Nearly one-fifth of Americans live in rural areas and experience multiple socioeconomic and health disparities. Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA)-funded health centers (HCs) provide comprehensive primary care in rural communities. However, no prior research has examined trends in access to care in rural HC patients. Authors examined the change in access to care among patients served at rural HRSA-funded HCs in the United States between 2009 and 2014.

Existing literature indicates that multimorbidity, mental health (MH) conditions, substance use disorders (SUDs), and social determinants of health are hallmarks of high-need, high-cost patients. Health Resources and Services Administration–funded health centers (HCs) provide care to nearly 30 million patients, but data on their patients’ complexity and utilization patterns are limited. Authors identified subgroups of HC patients based on latent concepts of complexity and utilization.
