By now, most of you have surely heard that health center funding passed early this morning. The Health Center Funding Cliff has been fixed, and we now have two years of additional funding. Hooray!
FQHC Funding Cliff Update - Today is the day!
Today is the day! Very soon the US Senate will vote on a budget package that includes funding to fix the Health Center Funding Cliff via a two year extension of the Community Health Center Fund. Soon after the Senate vote, the package will move to the House for a final vote that must occur before midnight tonight to avoid a government shutdown. To be clear, today is the day Congress can vote to fix the Health Center Funding cliff once and for all.
