Why This Project Matters:
As free and charitable clinics, you play a vital role in providing accessible healthcare to underserved communities. By collecting data through this project, we will be able to:
- Quantify the Impact: Showcase how our services prevent unnecessary ER visits and improve overall community health.
- Support Advocacy Efforts: Use data-driven insights to influence policy changes and secure vital funding.
- Enhance Patient Care: Identify common reasons for ER visits and develop targeted interventions to better serve our patients.
How to Get Involved:
We request that all FAFCC member clinics sign up to participate in this project. To confirm your clinic’s participation, please complete the ER Diversion Data Project Participation Form.
