The constraints that matter for CHCs are constraints on the funding of Community Health Centers. No training design such as Teaching CHCs can help as long as Medicaid pays less than costs of delivery for this 50% of Medicaid patients. No training intervention can overcome CMS with 1.4 trillion a year voted against basic, cognitive, office, basic health access services. These distort MD DO NP PA and RN away from lowest valued CHC and other practices predominantly Medicare, Medicaid, Dual, and other worst paying health insurance plans. All of the HRSA tens of billions are no match for the 1.4 trillion a year from CMS. Poor support translates to team members too few and team members with numerous dimensions of deficits in experience and continuity. All specialties are complex and all need most and best team members to share that complexity. Primary care and other basics are denied most and best and the CHCs that do have higher complexity have the fewest and least by design. Most and best team members are required and are denied by the financial design. No training design can overcome concentrations of the worst public and private health insurance plans HRSA and CHCs and most Americans most behind are not valued, especially regarding basic health access. I have studied basic health access for decades. More types of graduates, massive expansions, special schools and programs, and pipelines are all training interventions that have all failed for 40% of Americans most behind, for CHCs, and for others with worst quality health insurance that directly or indirectly reduce access to care.

Delays in approval of reauthorization and Teaching Health Center (THC) funding has caused programs to take extreme measures impacting current and future health care workforce. Congressional reauthorization and renewed appropriation are essential to preventing closure of these programs. Read the Forefront article: https://bit.ly/4aVtDu7

Aledade, Inc. is the largest network of independent primary care organizations in the country, helping primary care practices, Community Health Centers (CHCs), Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs), and health clinics deliver better care and thrive under value-based care. The utilization of ADTs supports transitional care management (TCM) to improve care coordination, prevent avoidable readmissions, and reduce costs. Approximately 1 in 7 TCM follow-ups prevent hospitalization, which saves approximately $15,000 in medical spending per admit. In 2022, ADTs provided by MX triggered approximately 2,000 TCM visit follow-ups and around 2,400 ED follow-ups, resulting in approximately $4.2 million dollars in savings while improving the quality of life and clinical outcomes for patients.

Summary of the review argument: "- Incivility and patient care and safety are intimately linked. - Black and minoritized ethnic (BME) staff are particularly vulnerable to incivility and discrimination. - A range of evidence shows BME staff are less likely to raise concerns, less likely to be listened to and more likely to be victimised if they do so - Research consistently shows two main reasons why people do not raise concerns are, first, a belief that if they do the matter would not be rectified; and second, a fear of retaliation - NHS boards must develop greater curiosity about the behaviours of staff, and be less concerned with reputation management - A culture of openness can be cultivated by tackling the fear that makes (BME) staff reluctant to speak up and by being proactive and preventative rather than waiting for individual staff to raise concerns."
