Statewide Scale-up of Mobile Testing Services and Community Health Connections
The Primary Care Connections Workgroup outlines a comprehensive plan for the statewide expansion of mobile testing services by leveraging community health workers and volunteers to connect individuals to essential resources. It includes utilizing real-time data collection, standardized provision of care, collaboration with health plans, and establishing a model for sustained use post-crisis. Recommendations focus on identifying target service areas, utilizing technology platforms for data collection, and providing seamless access to care for all individuals regardless of insurance status. The model emphasizes collaboration with state departments, community organizations, and social service agencies for effective dissemination and implementation.
