More Mobile Health Clinics for Communities

This new law makes it easier for community health centers to establish mobile clinics that can reach patients directly. This means more people, especially in hard-to-reach areas, will have easier access to medical care. Existing health centers can receive funds for mobile units without needing to open a new permanent facility.
Key points
Health centers can now more easily get funding to set up mobile clinics that travel to patients.
Existing health centers can create mobile units without needing to build a new, permanent facility.
New health centers wishing to launch mobile units must also establish a permanent, full-time site.
These changes take effect on January 1, 2024, making mobile medical services more widely available.
