ICYMI: Schatz Visits Community Health Centers for National Health Center Week

Honolulu, HI—Last week, Senator Brian Schatz visited community health centers across the state to discuss access to affordable care, implementation of the Affordable Care Act, and the importance of primary care.

“Hawai‘i’s tremendous network of community health centers provide access to affordable, quality care to thousands of families across our state,” said Senator Brian Schatz. “The work that they do improves the quality of life for our loved ones, and I will continue to fight to ensure that these centers have the resources they need to provide primary care, improve access, and implement President Obama’s Affordable Care Act. Thank you to staff, providers, and patients at the Moloka‘i Community Health Center, Waimanalo Health Center, Kokua Kalihi Comprehensive Family Services, and Waianae Coast Comprehensive Health Center for taking time to discuss with me the successes and obstacles that each facility faces.”
