A church-clinic model of the neighborhood health center, developed initially in a low-income area, has now been established over the past three years in middle- and upper-income areas. The church-clinics, called Wholistic Health Centers, are primary care medical clinics located in church buildings that utilize an interdisciplinary team in the planning for patient treatment and health education. The project integrates primary medical care with pastoral counseling services. Evaluation of the two clinics in middle-to-upper-income areas indicates that the patients are middle to upper class, well educated, and are not medically disenfranchised; their presenting problems are only slightly more often medical (58%) than psychosocial (42%).
教会诊所模式的社区卫生中心，最初是在低收入地区开发的，现在已经在过去三年中在中高收入地区建立起来。这些教会诊所被称为整体健康中心，是位于教堂建筑内的初级保健医疗诊所，利用跨学科团队规划患者治疗和健康教育。该项目将初级医疗保健与牧师咨询服务相结合。对中高收入地区的两个诊所的评估表明，患者属于中上层阶级，受过良好教育，没有被剥夺医疗保健的权利；他们的主要问题只是稍微更多的是医疗（58%）而不是社会心理问题（42%）。
