 UnitedHealthcare Community Plan of New York has announced a $750,000 investment to support a grant program in collaboration with the Community Health Care Association of New York State (CHCANYS). Grants will be awarded to federally qualified health centers (FQHCs) throughout New York to increase access to care coordinators and care navigators, commonly known as community health care workers or "CHWs" at FQHCs.

The application-based program will invite any FQHC in New York state to apply for the grant funding, with awards ranging from $25,000 to $33,000 for up to 15 health centers. Funding recipients will establish a learning collaborative among community health centers utilizing CHWs to share best practices for staffing, training, engagement and scope of work.
