An Appeal for Your Support

ClinicNET’s mission is to strengthen Colorado’s health care safety net by empowering organizations that serve vulnerable populations. We actively work to enhance the capacity of Community-Funded Safety Net Clinics (CSNCs) and federally certified Rural Health Clinics (RHCs) to serve medically vulnerable Colorado residents. Currently, there are 36 CSNCs and 52 RHCs, which includes clinics in urban, rural and frontier communities who provide healthcare to people who are low-income, uninsured and underinsured.

The work and mission of our affiliate clinics and the strength of our partnerships have given ClinicNET a trusted voice with government officials, policy professionals, and funders during this critical time of health care reform. Especially important is our partnership with the Colorado Rural Health Center enabling technical assistance opportunities for affiliate clinics.

Although technically not a membership or fee-for-service organization, ClinicNET does encourage financial contributions from the affiliate clinics it serves. Additional funding helps us continue to:

• Advocate for and increase the recognition of affiliate clinics as key safety net providers
• Support clinic participation in strategic patient care initiatives such as patient-centered medical home and quality improvement initiatives
• Provide education, resources, support and technical assistance
• Improve the HIT/HIE capacity of clinics
• Facilitate improved clinic data collection

We hope you will consider making a meaningful contribution in support of our valuable efforts.
