NCCHCA is proud of the work that Agape Health Services is doing under the leadership of CEO Dr. Michael McDuffie, DHSc, to retain primary care providers in rural Eastern North Carolina. Thank you to AP News for national coverage of one of NC's 43 Community Health Center organizations. From the article: The Federally Qualified Health Center, Agape Health, is "one of a few facilities in Martin county still offering primary care. More than a thousand of these health centers operate across the U.S. They receive federal government funds and take patients on a sliding pay scale, regardless of their insurance status or ability to pay. Agape Health added Saturday hours because of an influx of new patients after Martin General closed, said health center CEO Dr. Michael McDuffie. Last month, Agape reopened one of the orthopedic clinics that shut down along with the hospital. Read more: https://lnkd.in/ej9NSPSd #nc #ruralhealth #easternnc #primarycare #martincounty #healthnews
