This Fact Sheet provides an overview of the Health Resources & Services Administration’s (HRSA) Look-Alike Health Center Program. Look-Alike Health Centers are HRSA-recognized health centers that play a critical role in delivering comprehensive primary and preventive care services to underserved and vulnerable populations. Look-Alikes do not receive federal 330-funds but are eligible for other Health Center Program benefits such as the Medicaid Prospective Payment System (PPS) reimbursement rate. Becoming a Look-Alike Health Center is a viable option for an organization seeking to become part of HRSA’s Health Center Program, especially when there are no New Access Point funding opportunities available.
This project was supported by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) as part of an award totaling $6,695,756 with zero percentage financed with non-governmental sources.
