What are Federally Qualified Health Centers?
Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) are health care centers that provide a comprehensive range of services. FQHCs receive additional reimbursement through Medicaid and Medicare in order to treat underserved areas or populations. FQHCs also offer a sliding scale of fees based on insurance coverage and income. There are more than 160 FQHC in Chicago.
