Community and migrant health centers (CHCs) have been shown to increase access to health care, improve health status, and reduce health care costs in communities that they serve. Thus CHCs can play an important role in providing for underserved communities under any program of national health care reform whose aim is universal, affordable access. To benefit the poor, such a plan should be federally administered and progressively financed, with comprehensible enrollment procedures, easy paperwork, and clearly delineated limits and benefits.
社区和移民健康中心（CHCs）已被证明能够增加其所服务社区获得医疗保健的机会，改善健康状况，并降低医疗保健成本。因此，在任何旨在实现全民、可负担医疗保健覆盖的国家医疗改革计划中，社区和移民健康中心都可以在为服务不足的社区提供医疗保健方面发挥重要作用。为了使贫困人口受益，这样的计划应由联邦政府管理并逐步提供资金，要有易于理解的注册程序、简便的文书工作以及明确界定的限制和福利。
