Description

In spite of the best efforts of the affordable care act, and pennie - the official health insurance marketplace in the state of pennsylvania, the demand for our services continues to grow. We believe the after effects of the covid pandemic and subsequent public health emergency, and the medicaid unwinding that started earlier this year, have contributed to this increased demand. Our dental clinic is currently staffed by three (3) dentists, and three (3) public health dental health hygienists, and currently has a six month waiting list for new patients with no extra exam rooms. With the community project funding award, sphcc will be able to expand its dental clinic and construct new operatories to allow the health center to hire an additional dentist and dental hygienist to help reduce the backlog of appointments. In addition, sphcc will expand its woman's health clinic by increasing capacity through the construction of new and expanded lab space. This increased lab space will allow the health center to expand services and better care for our patients. In addition, we will build out an ADA compliant handicap accessible bathroom inside the clinic space to better serve our patients. The need for our perinatal services remains constant.
