Horizon Health Services, Inc. (HHS) is an award-winning nonprofit organization, offering primary care medical and dental services in three counties in Southside VA. Sussex, Surry, & Southampton counties are all federally designated Health Professional Shortage Areas (HPSA). HHS was opened in 1979 and employs 46 employees, of which 6 are professional providers. The current operating budget is $4 million, which includes a $1.5 annual federal grant award from the US Department of Health and Human Services. This grant is used to serve uninsured and underinsured patients. Demographics of the communities served may be further described as: high levels of poverty, higher than state average for unemployment, numbers of uninsured/underinsured, and high levels of minority populations. These characteristics are not unique in the community health center (CHC) setting and have earmarked CHC’s as safety net providers.
