Nevada Health Centers' Capital Campaign
|
NVHC is planning to open a primary care health center called Eastern Family Medical and Dental Center in Las Vegas, in an area that has been designated as a Health Professional Shortage Area (HPSA) by the federal government.
Las Vegas is one of the fastest growing cities in the nation and people are having difficultly finding a health care home. It is particularly difficult for the uninsured to find care. Due to rapid growth, growing service demands and an increasingly diverse payor mix in the service area, a modernized medical facility is greatly needed.
