Abstract

The introduction of the Affordable Care Act and the expansion of Medicaid in Pennsylvania catalyzed many changes in healthcare and created a new landscape that increased access to healthcare for over 30 million people nationwide. Community health centers serve as the primary source of care for many uninsured and underinsured individuals, and are often the only healthcare provider option available to these patients. Without these centers, individuals are forced to rely on expensive emergency room visits as their primary source of medical care, increasing the cost of healthcare for everyone.
