This translational team is focused on improving equity and access through health care system innovation.
The National Safety Net Advancement Center (SNAC), “the Center,” at Arizona State University (ASU) focuses upon interventions to improve equity and access for underserved populations; and determining how organizations that help underserved populations respond to payment reform and care delivery reform. Six sectors provide the preponderance of the health care safety net system: a) Federally Qualified Health Centers, b) Community Mental Health Centers, c) Public County Hospitals, d) Tribal Health Centers, e) Critical Access Hospitals, and f) Oral Health Providers. Collectively, these six sectors consist of over 6,200 organizations and provide care to an estimated 106 million persons.
