The future clearly favors health centers who have become masters of their own data. Within the health center movement, there is an understanding of the unwavering commitment to quality that is a hallmark of community health centers.As neighbors caring for neighbors, we hold ourselves to high standards, knowing that the care provided must be good enough for our mothers, our daughters, our friends. We are accustomed to accountability to our community and to HRSA. However, more and more our health centers are being required to objectively demonstrate this quality in order to remain viable as financial compensation is made contingent upon this data.
