There is emphasis in the funding program on utilizing funds for COVID-19 related activities. i2i’s COVID-19 toolkit within i2iTracks is in use at over 300 FQHCs nationally and meets the requirements of H8F, enabling health centers to generate the data necessary to produce progress reporting and outcomes in the specific H8F categories.
CHCs will be required to monitor and report on status for the various initiatives where H8F funds are used. It will be important to have flexible technology solutions to identify at-risk populations, engage patients who may have delayed care during COVID and track/report on COVID-related activities, such as tests and vaccine administration.
