What is a community health system?

Community Health Systems are organizations or networks that provide healthcare services to local populations, often focusing on underserved or rural communities. They operate hospitals, clinics, and other health facilities to ensure accessible, affordable, and comprehensive care. These systems may include preventive services, primary care, specialty services, and health education, aiming to improve overall community health. Community Health Systems play a crucial role in addressing public health needs and reducing health disparities by making healthcare more accessible to all.
