AmeriChoice of New Jersey Teams with Community Health Centers
AmeriChoice of New Jersey is sponsoring or participating in 22 events at community health centers in Atlantic, Camden, Cape May, Essex, Hudson, Monmouth, North Hudson, Ocean, and Union Counties, in support of National Health Center Week, August 9-15, led by the National Association of Community Health Centers (NACHC).
The effort includes health information events, health screenings (such as blood pressure, cholesterol, dental and glucose), educational materials and recognition awards. We have detailed the activities in the material provided with this release.
"As a partner with the New Jersey Department of Human Services in Medicaid, Personal Care Plus and NJ Family Care, we are committed to improving access to quality, affordable health care for the most vulnerable populations in America,” said John Kirchner, AmeriChoice of New Jersey president.
Community Health Centers serve 18 million people at more than 7,000 sites nationwide, providing quality health care. This was documented recently in a study by The George Washington University Medical Center, focusing on CHCs supported by AmeriChoice corporate parent, UnitedHealth Group. The study concluded that CHCs can and do provide high-quality health care that equals or exceeds care provided in the private sector.
