State Policy
Oklahoma Primary Care Association advocates for policies that foster access to affordable, community-based health care for all Oklahomans. In Oklahoma, where 100% of the state’s 77 counties are entirely or partially designated as Health Professional Shortage Areas (HPSAs), ensuring that all Oklahomans have access to care is critical. Community health centers are the solution to so many of Oklahoma’s health care problems, whether it’s the opioid crisis, provider shortage, or lack of access for the uninsured.
