(IHC) has a longstanding history in Indiana, serving the state’s rural, urban, underserved and minority populations since 1981. The organization was originally funded as a HRSA Migrant Health Center, and has grown into a statewide health center, serving various regions and vulnerable populations throughout Indiana. IHC is comprised of eight CHC funded sites, one HCH (Healthcare for the Homeless) funded site, two integrated WIC programs, five free-standing WIC programs, one mobile health clinic, and a central administrative office in Central Indiana. IHC is the only Migrant Health Center in the state of Indiana, and as such, is vital to meeting the needs of this special population. IHC is committed to providing quality-cost effective care to patients in Indiana, existing to expand affordable and equitable access to high-quality health care for underserved and impoverished populations across the state. IHC will utilize funds through HRSA to expand hours at four clinical locations to increase accessibility across each of the three regions it serves: - IHC proposes to expand three hours at IHC at South Bend. - IHC proposes to expand three hours at IHC at Kokomo. - IHC proposes to expand three hours at IHC Jackson County Annex. - IHC proposes to expand the Mobile Health Van by twelve hours. Expanded services include in-scope primary care and acute care services. Project activities include: - Leveraging community partnerships and conducting outreach to inform community members of the new schedules; - Expanding staff time and capacity to accommodate extended hours. The goals to be achieved through these activities are: - Increasing the number of patients receiving primary care services; - Increasing the number of new patient visits; - Increasing the number of acute care visits.
