Expanding Data Reporting Capacity of Free and Charitable Clinics: A Quality Improvement Project.

Background: In 2018, member clinics of the Virginia Association of Free and Charitable Clinics (VAFCC) provided over 235,500 visits to un/underinsured patients. A survey of VAFCC members found that only 67% report on clinical outcome measures and 56% do not collect social determinant of health (SDOH) data.

Objective: The purpose of this project was to determine if the provision of web-based technical assistance toolkits and peer mentoring improve quality and data reporting capacity of VAFCC member clinics.
