FQHC Look-Alike: A Win-Win for Your Hospital & Community
November 9, 2022
It's important to evaluate the financial outcomes of all aspects of a hospital to help determine if improvements should be made. Join FORVIS' healthcare team as we explore converting physician clinics into federally qualified health center look-alikes (FQHC LA)—an option that can potentially increase your margins and notch a win for your community and patients. We'll cover Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) requirements for FQHC LA status and the pros and cons of converting your clinic.

- Discuss the HRSA guidelines and requirements for FQHC LA status
