Abstract

Health care costs in the United States are generally unaffordable; however, Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) have the prime mission to offer affordable services to the communities they serve. This paper evaluates the funding structures over a two-year period of an FQHC in Metropolitan-Atlanta which the Atlanta Regional Commission Agency determines to have the following eleven counties: Cherokee, Clayton, Cobb, DeKalb, Douglas, Fayette, Fulton, Gwinnett, Henry, Rockdale, and the City of Atlanta. After a comparative review of the clinical and non-clinical aspects, recommendations will be made on how the specific Atlanta FQHC studied could increase their revenue or other performance measures such as best practices.
