Ohio Association of Community Health Centers

Description

The Ohio Association of Community Health Centers (OACHC) is the primary care association for the state of Ohio. It currently represents 59 community health centers at over 500 locations, including multiple mobile units, in 76 of the 88 total counties. Community Health Centers provided care to nearly 1 million Ohioans and provide over 3.77 million patient visits annually. In 2016, OACHC received their first HCCN grant funding and worked with 16 PHCs.  In 2019, OACHC was working with 21 health centers around the state and most recently in 2024 work with 26 health centers. The OACHC HCCN purchased a population health management platform to further enhance the reporting and quality improvement capabilities of the PHCs and provide an opportunity for statewide support, standardization and reporting. The HCCN recognizes the critical need for its member centers to move to a value-based models of payment. Without data that is reliable and accessible, it is impossible for OACHC members to assume this risk in a responsible manner. OACHC HCCN will support the needs of the PHCs with a shared goal of improved health outcomes for all patients.
