Question 1

What is a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC)?

Accepted Answer

An FQHC is a community-based healthcare provider that receives federal funding under the Health Center Program to provide primary care services in under-resourced areas. They serve all patients regardless of ability to pay and offer sliding fee scales based on income.

Question 2

How many FQHCs are in the United States?

Accepted Answer

This directory covers 1,521 Federally Qualified Health Centers across 59 states and territories, combining HRSA-sourced structural data, state context, quality signals, workforce data, and strategic intelligence where available. Together they operate 17,872+ service-delivery sites serving tens of millions of patients.

Question 3

Can I sort and compare FQHCs by state, patients, or Medicaid mix?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The directory is sortable nationwide by patient volume, Medicaid and uninsured share, HRSA clinical quality score, sites, live job openings, resilience, and Glassdoor rating, and filterable by state, EHR system, and program. You can select any state or browse all 50 states and territories at once.

Question 4

Do FQHCs offer loan repayment programs?

Accepted Answer

Some FQHC roles and sites can support National Health Service Corps (NHSC) loan repayment applications, but eligibility is not automatic. Candidates should verify the exact site, discipline, HPSA score, loan type, service schedule, current HRSA cycle, and award status before counting repayment in total compensation.
