health centers

Health centers are community-based facilities that provide a range of essential healthcare services to individuals, regardless of their insurance status or ability to pay. They focus on primary care, preventive services, and often include dental, mental health, and substance abuse services. Health centers are designed to serve underserved populations, ensuring access to quality healthcare in the community. They typically offer affordable services, often on a sliding fee scale based on income, and aim to improve overall community health by addressing both immediate medical needs and long-term wellness through education and prevention programs.
