Sharing Best Practices: Lessons from Community Health Centers Coast to Coast

Originally broadcast May 22, 2024

This week we’ve brought together some of the brightest minds who run many of the best and most innovative community health centers across the country. From Long Island to San Francisco, community health centers served over 31 million patients last year. How are they keeping pace with their success while always working to improve the quality of the care?

The guests are part of the Community Health Best Practices network and serve as CEOs of their nonprofits:

  • Gloria Amador from Salud Integral en la Montaña in Puerto Rico;
  • Eddie Chan with North East Medical Services in San Francisco;
  • Nieves Gomez with Columbia Basin Health Association in Connell, Washington;
  • Ann Kauffman Nolon with Sun River Health in New York City, Long Island and the Hudson Valley; and
  • Greg Wilmot with East Boston Neighborhood Health Center.

“Conversations on Health Care” co-hosts Mark Masselli and Margaret Flinter explore how they navigated the COVID pandemic, deal with employee engagement and tackle funding challenges.
