This investment supports the Massachusetts League of Community Health Centers (MLCHC) to be a technical assistance partner for primary care associations (PCAs) that are a part of the National Oral Health Innovation and Integration Network (NOHIIN). The MLCHC will focus on supporting PCA and CHC implementation of the Qualis Oral Health Implementation Guide and Coaching Guide, and continued exposure to and development in key resources that support oral health care delivery in safety net settings. The proposed strategy aligns with the Oral Health 2020 goal of integrating oral health into person-centered healthcare and the target that oral health is integrated into 50% of emerging person-centered care models. $87,723 will be used to support staff time associated with participation in network activities and delivery of technical assistance.
