Rural Health Clinics (RHC)

Rural Health Clinics (RHCs) are healthcare facilities located in rural areas to improve access to medical services for residents. They focus on providing primary care and preventive health services, often to underserved populations. RHCs are designed to be more affordable and accessible, often accepting Medicaid and Medicare. They typically offer a range of services, including check-ups, immunizations, and chronic disease management, and may have extended hours to better serve the community. By ensuring better healthcare access, RHCs aim to enhance the overall health and well-being of people living in rural regions.
