Special Announcements

The North Carolina Community Health Center Association (NCCHCA) was formed in 1978 by the leadership of community health centers. NCCHCA is comprised of membership from 43 Community Health Center organizations. NCCHCA is singularly focused on the success of health centers.

Primary Care Association

NCCHCA is the HRSA funded state Primary Care Association (PCA). The non-profit, consumer-governed Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) we represent provide integrated medical, dental, pharmacy, behavioral health, and enabling services to nearly one-half million patients in North Carolina. FQHCs receive federal assistance to provide sliding-fee services to assure no one is denied access to care. NCCHCA represents FQHCs to state and federal officials and provides training and technical assistance on clinical, operational, financial, administrative, and governance issues.

GROUP PURCHASING ORGANIZATION

The North Carolina Community Health Association Group Purchasing Organization (GPO) provides shared services and strategic sourcing solutions for North Carolina’s health centers. The GPO leverages community health center purchasing power to generate maximum savings for members. Individual community health centers and lookalike organizations may enroll as GPO members and utilize the Association’s group purchasing program as a free benefit.

CAROLINA MEDICAL HOME NETWORK (CMHN)

Carolina Medical Home Network (CMHN) is a health center-funded, health center-owned, and health center managed clinically integrated network of 23 participating NC health centers in partnership with NCCHCA. Through its governance infrastructure, CMHN is using data to drive improved outcomes for patients in its network. CMHN is contracting with third-party payers  to improve practice performance in value-based contracts through practice transformation and care for beneficiaries.

HRSA HEALTH CENTER CONTROLLED NETWORK

NCCHCA is also a HRSA funded Health Center Controlled Network (HCCN) grantee currently in the third three-year grant cycle. Thirty-six NC health centers currently are members of the HCCN. Participating in the HCCN, health centers have the opportunity to work together on leveraging health information technology for better operational and clinical outcomes.
