§1185.2. Findings
The legislature finds that the state of Louisiana has fewer federally qualified health centers and rural health clinics than neighboring states and that as a result of lack of federally qualified health centers and rural health clinics there are gaps in the provision of community-based preventive and primary health care services for the uninsured in Louisiana. Therefore, the legislature finds that it is in the best interest of the state to encourage appropriate expansion of existing federally qualified health centers and development of new federally qualified health centers. It is also in the best interest of the state to encourage the development of new rural health clinics that provide primary care to the uninsured.
