POCAHONTAS -- The Iowa Primary Care Association will host two technical assistance sessions on July 28 at the Hinde Community Center in Pocahontas to help organizations prepare for upcoming Iowa Department of Health and Human Services funding opportunities focused on improving access to coordinated care in rural communities.
The sessions are part of Iowa's Rural Health Transformation Program (RHTP) Healthy Hometowns initiative, which aims to support models that bring health care and related services together under one roof to make care more accessible and connected for rural Iowans.
Two sessions will be offered in Pocahontas:
• School-Based Technical Assistance Session: 10 a.m. to noon
• General Co-Location Technical Assistance Session: 1 p.m. to 3 p.m.
The sessions are designed to help organizations understand the upcoming Iowa HHS request for proposals, expected later this summer, and prepare for potential participation in Iowa RHTP initiatives.
Potential participants include local public health agencies, community health centers, rural health clinics, hospitals, behavioral health organizations, oral health providers, schools, pharmacies, nutrition organizations, substance use treatment programs and other health care or social service organizations interested in collaborative rural care models.
