This webinar focused on My Texas My Health, which is a clinically integrated network (CIN) for federally qualified health centers (FQHCs) established by the Texas Association of Community Health Centers (TACHC). Supported by implementation funding from the Episcopal Health Foundation (EHF), the CIN was created to enhance health centers’ capacity to negotiate and participate in value-based care and improve health outcomes for patients. EHF engaged JSI, a mission-driven public health research and consulting organization, to evaluate the early implementation of My Texas My Health. You can find the evaluation here.
This webinar provided an overview of My Texas My Health, highlighted the evaluation, progress, and early wins, and included a discussion around future opportunities for its next phase. We heard from EHF, TACHC, JSI, and Aetna.
