1 2016 MISSISSIPPI QUALIFIED HEALTH CENTER PROGRAM REPORT A Demonstrated Return on Investment Mississippi s Health Centers Provide Quality Care at Lower Cost
2 MISSISSIPPI QUALIFIED HEALTH CENTER PROGRAM 2 About the Mississippi Qualified Health Center Program The Mississippi Qualified Health Center (MQHC) Program emerged from the need to address the immense disparities and access barriers between primary health care for uninsured or medically indigent patients and the insured population. The MQHC Program was established under House Bill 403 during the 1999 Legislative session and funded through the Health Care Expendable Fund. The Legislature allocated funding for a five year, $20 million program to be distributed at the rate of $4 million per year for SFYs , with no MQHC receiving more than $200,000 annually. MQHCs or Community Health Centers (CHCs) are public or nonprofit 501(c)(3) entities that provide comprehensive primary care services and meet the following criteria. 1) Have a community board of directors, the majority of which are users of such centers; 2) Accept all patients that present themselves despite their ability to pay and also utilize a sliding-fee-schedule for payments; and 3) Serve a designated medically underserved area or population, as provided in Section 330 of the Public Health Services Act. During SFY2014, twenty-one Community Health Centers operating 191 delivery sites located across the state received annual grant awards ranging from $119,866 to $142,793 under the MQHC Program. (See page 3 for a complete listing of funds awarded). These CHCs have used their grant awards to provide increased access to preventive and primary care services for uninsured or medically indigent patients and to augment existing services. Many CHCs have new services that were made possible solely through the funding provided by the MQHC Program. (See complete listing of services on page 3). Since the MQHC Program s inception, utilization of Mississippi s Community Health Centers has increased significantly. This increase demonstrates the success of the program in reaching more of Mississippi s most vulnerable populations, the uninsured and medically indigent. A Letter to the Mississippi Legislators Dear Legislators: We are pleased to report success this year as the MQHC program support offers you a significant return on your investment of $3,000,000 in FY Given that the Community Health Centers saw 115,427 underserved Mississippians during this reporting period, this would yield an ROI of $25 to every $1 of the state s investment. This is in line with a landmark study referenced in this year s report produced by the American Journal of Public Health in 2016, entitled Healthcare Use and Spending in FQHCs vs. other Primary Care Settings. MPHCA as an organization has remained steadfast in its mission for 30 years, which is, To serve as a member organization, which supports its {Community Health Center} members in their collaborative efforts and advocates for the provision of equal access to quality, comprehensive health care services and the elimination of health disparities in the state. Community Health Centers in Mississippi continue to expand access to healthcare for an average of 300,000 patients annually. At the core, each health center mission is the goal to provide comprehensive and quality services of primary care, behavioral and oral health care as well as many enabling services. In 2016, expansions occurred by health centers which will increase capacity to serve an additional estimate of 18,000 citizens, provide new opportunities for employment and result in exponential economic impact. As we approach the 30th year of the work of MPHCA in 2017, health centers are poised as never before to impact the quality of life for Mississippi s underserved residents on a statewide basis. The environment of value-based care puts health centers in our state right at the center of a movement regarding Accountable Care, which seeks pay for value and not simply volume. It affords opportunity for highlighting the ongoing improvements in health outcomes that CHCs provide to those who are disproportionately impacted by chronic health conditions. We remain committed to driving improvements in population health through critical data mining and the effective use of technology. Future generations of Mississippians will be afforded an even broader benefit as primary care is transformed to be more and more patient-centric. To-date, eighty percent of health centers have met rigorous data standards through the National Center for Quality Assurance and the Joint Commission for achieving Patient Centered Medical Homes. Others are well on their way to achieving this same goal. In addition to our sincere appreciation to the legislative body, we appreciate the ongoing work with our partners to improve the health of Mississippians at the absolute best cost. Community Health Centers offer a significant return on your investment in offering the Best Cost of Care for Quality Care. Sincerely, Rashad Ali, MD, JD Mississippi Primary Health Care Association Janice Sherman, CEO Mississippi Primary Health Care Association THE MQHC PROGRAM HAS BEEN SUCCESSFUL IN PROVIDING COMPREHENSIVE HEALTH CARE TO MANY UNINSURED, UNDERINSURED AND MEDICALLY INDIGENT MISSISSIPPIANS; HOWEVER, ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE REMAINS A VITAL ISSUE FOR THE STATE. SUSTAINING EQUAL OR GREATER FUNDING WILL YIELD EVEN GREATER PROGRESS FOR THE FUTURE IN SUPPORT OF A COST EFFECTIVE METHOD FOR PROVIDING CRITICALLY NEEDED HEALTH SERVICES TO MISSISSIPPI S MOST VULNERABLE, UNDERINSURED & UNINSURED CITIZENS.
