Community Project Funding/Congressionally Directed Spending - Construction - Springfield Medical Care Systems, Inc. plans to use this funding to expand access to dental patients within the State of Vermont, from school-based care, home visits, or current existing dental offices operated by SMCS. Funding from this Congressional Directed Spending will allow for the purchase and replacement of equipment to better serve the population who reside or travel to the designated service area of SMCS as defined by HRSA within the UDS Data Mapper. With this new equipment SMCS will be able to deliver access to school age pediatric children who at times forego dental care, as well as increase the quality of care for all patients by replacing outdated or defective equipment within SMCS' Chester and/or Ludlow Vermont locations. There is no plan to use these funds for construction, renovations, or any other non-allowable costs as defined in the HRSA Project Guidelines, HRSA-22-134.
