HITEQ Resources & Events

HRSA cooperative agreements with state and regional organizations provide training and technical assistance (T/TA) to potential and existing Health Center Program award recipients and look-alikes.

Health Center Controlled Networks (HCCNs) are groups of health centers working together to address operational and clinical challenges related to the use of health information technology (health IT). HCCNs receiving HRSA grant funding offer a wide range of support services to improve the health centers’ ability to: 1) achieve meaningful use of ONC-certified electronic health records (EHRs), 2) adopt technology-enabled quality improvement strategies, 3) engage in health information exchange (HIE), and 4) strengthen quality of care and improve patient outcomes. 

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and the Office of the National Coordinator for Health IT (ONC) are working to improve the health of our nation by transforming care from a volume-based, provider-centered system to a patient-centered, learning health system. The eCQI Resource Center is a joint effort to bring together stakeholders from across the eCQI community and provide a centralized location for news, information, tools and standards related to eCQI and electronic clinical quality measures (eCQMs).

Capital Link is a national, non-profit organization that has worked with hundreds of health centers and Primary Care Associations over the past 18 years to plan capital projects, finance growth and identify ways to improve performance. Established through the community health center movement, Capital Link is dedicated to strengthening and expanding high-quality, community based healthcare in a rapidly changing marketplace.

The National Training and Technical Assistance Cooperative Agreements (NCAs) provide free training and technical assistance that is data driven, cutting edge and focused on quality and operational improvement to support health centers and look-alikes.  These resources include state/regional/national trainings, webinars, newsletters, toolkits, and fact sheets.
