What it reported doing in 2024

Office of rural health quality improvement grant: program that has allowed unique primary care clinics to merge their data into one system for the purposes of doing population wide, practice specific, provider specific and patient specific reporting. Those reports provide a basis for developing quality improvement plans for implementation. Enabled by the necessity of more virtual interaction due to covid-19, deliberate progress and efficiencies have been acheived in transitioning from face-to-face interactions with geographically dispersed partners and practices to on-line working group. More proactive and innovative efforts have led to more preliminary consultations with local foundations, local cbos and local/county government signaling a more integrated approach to address social determinants of health in the future, which is more resilient to new challenges and less dependent on external funding.
