Community Health Centers

Background

In December 2018, MetroHealth partnered with a patient-led community Board of Directors to launch the MetroHealth Community Health Centers (MHCHC), a public entity Federally Qualified Health Center Look-Alike (FQHC LAL).

Formally approved as a part of HRSA’s Health Center Program in March 2020, the MHCHC supports inclusive and equitable community wellbeing, in collaboration with our patients, partnering with the MetroHealth System and other critical community organizations, in a sustainable and effective manner.

Comprehensive Services

We provide comprehensive primary care including medical, dental, behavioral health and supportive services. 

MHCHC Board of Directors

The MHCHC is governed by a Board of Directors comprised of health center patients and overall representative of the communities served by the MHCHC. The Board meets monthly and is responsible for oversight of the Health Center Program requirements.
