subject: Affordable Health Coverage For Currently Uninsured Through Freedom Financial Concepts In Lantana, Fl [print this page] Affordable healthcare remains a central issue of concern across the nation. Most U.S. nonprofit health centers, community clinics, and free clinics are seeing increased patient numbers, expect to treat more patients without insurance, and anticipate more challenging conditions during the next year based on funding and patient trends, according to Direct Relief's annual The State of the Safety Net.
The report summarizes the results of a survey conducted early in 2012 of U.S. nonprofit community-based health clinics, Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs), and free clinics. In addition, information is provided about recent trends identified after analysis of the last 5 years of FQHC data. Direct Relief estimates that nonprofit clinics and health centers collectively provide care to more than 21 million people across the United States annually.
As Americans struggle to establish financial stability, they continue to face uncertainty about the implementation of the Supreme Court ruling on The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act in various states. As these debates continue, analysis of FQHC data shows national increases in overall patients seeking care at FQHCs, higher rates of chronic conditions among patients, and a higher percentage of patients at or below the poverty level. In addition, state-level differences exist regarding increases and decreases in rates of Medicaid patients, those without insurance, and patients with diabetes.
