How Community Health Centers Are Serving Low-Income Communities During the COVID-19 Pandemic Amid New and Continuing Challenges
Issue Brief
Health centers report the number of vaccinations received by health center patients in the HRSA Health Center COVID-19 Survey. The survey’s questionnaire asks health centers to report the total number of patients receiving a vaccine, and HRSA has clarified that this count includes health center patients receiving vaccinations anywhere, including in settings other than the health center. However, we expect that health centers delivered the vast majority of vaccinations reported in the survey, and the number of patients reported through the survey receiving their vaccinations elsewhere is likely minimal.
