The process for obtaining Federally Qualified Health Center Status (and thus federal funding) is described. The Appendix provides examples including sample bylaws, a full policy and procedure manual, physician and nurse practitioner collaborative agreements, job descriptions, a contract with a local agency, and outcome and assessment guidelines" - Provided by the Publisher
