A new report by the Geiger Gibson/RCHN Community Health Foundation Research Collaborative addresses the state-level economic and employment consequences that could occur if the Community Health Center Fund, which expired on September 30, 2017, is not restored. Millions of patients served by community health centers may lose access to crucial health care and up to 161,000 jobs could be lost in communities across the nation.
