Project Access - a Local Solution

First few Article Sentences

Access to necessary health care is something many of us take for granted. We get sick - we go to the doctor. Tests are run, procedures are ordered and medications are prescribed. We get the care we need. However, over 835,000 uninsured Washington State residents don’t have this option when they become ill. Community health clinics and other safety net clinics do an amazing job of meeting the primary care needs of low income patients, regardless of their insurance status. If a patient has a health care need beyond primary care, the uninsured patient faces many challenges in getting appropriate, timely and cost effective care.
