The Public Housing Primary Care (PHPC) program was created under the Disadvantaged Minority Health Improvement Act of 1990 which amended the Public Health Service Act to include Section 340A. The program was reauthorized under Public Law 104-299, the Health Centers Consolidation Act of 1996 as Section 330(i) of the Public Health Service through the Health Care Safety Net Amendments and was reauthorized in 2002.
The PHPC program is funded through the Heath Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Currently HRSA funds 41 PHPC health centers located in 19 states throughout the nation. The PHPC program sites include urban, rural, mobile, on-site and clinical settings. These programs provide high-quality comprehensive health care services to 129,280 residents at approximately 155 service delivery sites.
PHPC programs are designed to provide residents of public housing, individuals and familes who benefit from public rent subsidies, and other low-income persons living in areas accessible to public housing with increased access to comprehensive primary care and health-related services to improve their overall health and well-being and to eliminate health disparities. Services are provided on the premises of public housing developments or at other locations immediately accessible to residents.
