Telehealth keeps Community Health Center patients connected to care, even when life makes it hard to walk through the door.

Elizabeth Mastrianni, Nurse Practitioner at , a community health center network serving the Bronx, Harlem, and Queens, sees it every day. A parent juggling multiple kids. Patients working two or three jobs. People who would otherwise delay or skip care altogether.

Telehealth changes that. It brings care into the home, gives patients their time back, and opens the door to more complete, proactive care.

But right now, New York reimburses health centers for telehealth at only a fraction of in-person rates.

That limits how many patients they can reach.

We’ve seen what works. Now we need policy that keeps up.

Don’t shortchange telehealth! Support full payment for CHCs!

Watch the video to hear what’s possible.

Happy Nurses Week! 💙

This week, we proudly celebrate the incredible nursing team that keeps our community strong, cared for, and connected every single day.

From our dedicated LPNs who keep our clinics running smoothly, to our tactical RNs delivering skilled, compassionate care on the front lines, to our RN Care Managers coordinating whole-person health for our patients—your impact is felt in every life you touch.

To our Nursing Supervisor and Director of Nursing and Clinical Services, thank you for your leadership, guidance, and commitment to excellence that empowers our teams to thrive.

In community health, nursing is more than a profession—it’s advocacy, compassion, resilience, and heart. You meet patients where they are, break down barriers, and make quality care accessible for all.

We see you. We appreciate you. And we thank you for everything you do.

Patients don’t just need care. They need someone on their side.

For Sandy, that someone is a doctor she trusts with her life, backed by a team that listens and cares.

That’s what New York’s 2.5 million community health center patients know they can count on.

Can they count on Albany to invest $300 million to protect that care?
