ADDRESS: 1303 W SIXTH STREET, SUITE 105, CORONA, CA 92882-3196 PROJECT DIRECTOR NAME: ANDY PISKOULIAN, CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER PROJECT DIRECTOR PHONE NUMBER: (951) 278-8910 EXT. 130 PROJECT DIRECTOR EMAIL: APISK@CENTROMEDICOCLINIC.COM WEBSITE: HTTPS://WWW.CENTROMEDICOCLINIC.COM/ ORGANIZATION HEADQUARTERS CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT: 41ST CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA NEW ACCESS POINT CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT: ORGANIZATION: CA-041; PROPOSED NEW SITE: CA-023 SINCE ITS ESTABLISHMENT IN 2002, CENTRO MEDICO COMMUNITY CLINIC (CMCC) HAS BEEN DEDICATED TO PROVIDING ESSENTIAL HEALTHCARE SERVICES TO UNDERSERVED RESIDENTS OF RIVERSIDE COUNTY, CALIFORNIA. INITIALLY FOUNDED TO ADDRESS THE HEALTHCARE NEEDS OF LOW-INCOME INDIVIDUALS, CMCC ACHIEVED THE DESIGNATION OF A FEDERALLY QUALIFIED HEALTH CENTER LOOK-ALIKE (FQHC-LAL) IN 2010. THE CLINIC PRIMARILY SERVES RESIDENTS WITH INCOMES BELOW 200% OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES (FPG), A GROWING POPULATION IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA WITH SIGNIFICANT UNMET HEALTHCARE NEEDS. HOMELESSNESS IS A GROWING PROBLEM IN THE REGION, AND THE ORGANIZATION SEEKS TO IMPROVE THE NUMBER OF HOMELESS INDIVIDUALS ACCESSING HEALTHCARE SERVICES SIGNIFICANTLY. TO ENSURE THAT THIS PROJECT ADDRESSES THE UNIQUE NEEDS OF EXISTING AND FUTURE PATIENTS, CMCC REQUESTS $650,000 IN FUNDING, WHICH INVOLVES OPENING OF A NEW, FULL-TIME HEALTH CENTER PROGRAM SERVICE DELIVERY SITE. CMCC’S CURRENT SERVICE AREA AS A FQHC-LAL INCLUDES ZIP CODES 92505, 92880, 92879, 92503, 92509, AND 92882, WHICH ENCOMPASS CORONA, RIVERSIDE, AND VARIOUS OTHER COMMUNITIES. DESPITE THE PRESENCE OF OTHER FQHCS, A SUBSTANTIAL PORTION OF THE LOW-INCOME POPULATION REMAINS UNSERVED BY A HEALTH CENTER PROGRAM PARTICIPANT. THIS PROJECT WILL ENABLE CMCC TO FURTHER EXPAND ITS REACH INTO SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY IN THE ZIP CODE TABULATION AREA (ZCTA) 92371, WHICH IS COMPRISED OF MEDICALLY UNDERSERVED COMMUNITIES SUCH AS PHELAN, PINON HILLS, BALDY MESA, AND OAK HILLS. THIS ZCTA IS CLASSIFIED AS A HIGH-NEED AREA BY HRSA WITH ONLY 5% LOW-INCOME POPULATION HEALTH CENTER PROGRAM PENETRATION AND ONLY 2% OVERALL PENETRATION. TO ADDRESS THE SIGNIFICANT HEALTHCARE NEEDS OF THIS COMMUNITY, CMCC WILL OFFER A COMPREHENSIVE RANGE OF HEALTH CENTER PROGRAM SERVICES, INCLUDING PRIMARY MEDICAL CARE, BEHAVIORAL HEALTHCARE, SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER SERVICES, PEDIATRICS, CHRONIC DISEASE MANAGEMENT, WOMEN'S HEALTH SERVICES, ORAL HEALTHCARE, FAMILY PLANNING, IMMUNIZATIONS, STD SCREENING AND TREATMENT, PHYSICALS, DIAGNOSTIC TESTING, HEALTH EDUCATION, NUTRITIONAL COUNSELING, PREVENTION CARE EDUCATION, SUPPORTIVE SERVICES, AND ENABLING SERVICES ACROSS ALL NEW ACCESS POINT SITES. BY THE END OF THE PROJECT PERIOD, CMCC WILL HAVE IMPROVED ACCESS TO CARE FOR THE SERVICE AREA, INCLUDING THE APPROXIMATELY 12,800 LOW-INCOME INDIVIDUALS ACROSS THE SERVICE AREA.
