Access to Healthcare
Mother Cabrini Health Foundation (MCHF) is committed to supporting programs that advance comprehensive and equitable access to healthcare in every region of New York State, particularly for low-income and underserved populations. Medically underserved communities and marginalized populations face a range of barriers to access. The cumulative impact of these barriers causes inequity in health outcomes. MCHF supports programs that help ensure all New Yorkers have access to the full range of quality health services they need, when and where they need them, without financial hardship. Programs within this portfolio address a variety of factors that impact access to quality healthcare, including the following:
