Description

The VISTA project aims to meet health needs by increasing access to healthcare for economically disadvantaged individuals. As these individuals most often have Medicaid or Medicare, it's more difficult to obtain coverage for medically necessary medications, diagnostics procedures, and services. This lack of access to care contributes to health disparities and puts low-income individuals at higher risk of complications from chronic disease progression. The VISTA will support data collection for funding and clinical engagements used by the Center of Excellence. The COE VISTA will work on collecting and organizing data from the electronic health records. In addition, the VISTA will support data collection and tracking measures that inform the clinicians’ approaches and supports the infrastructure of the MAT programming. The VISTA will help build the sustainability of expanding the MAT program within the PHMC Health Network.
