Overview
Health Center Controlled Networks (HCCNs) are groups of health centers working together to use health information technology (health IT) to improve operational and clinical practices. HCCNs help health centers leverage health IT to increase participation in value-based care by:
- Enhancing the patient and provider experience,
- Advancing interoperability, and
- Using data to enhance value.
Submission and approval of the Non-Competing Continuation (NCC) Progress Report in HRSA’s Electronic Handbooks (EHBs) will enable continued funding for the 49 organizations that received funding in FY 2019 under HRSA-19-011.
This funding is authorized by Section 330(e)(1)(C) of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. § 254b(e)(1)(C), as amended).
