Northern Virginia Family Service awarded grant to care for uninsured

Press release:

The Virginia Health Care Foundation (VHCF) has awarded $40,348 to Northern Virginia Family Service for a medication assistance caseworker (MAC) at the Greater Prince William Community Health Center to help obtain prescription medicines for their sick, uninsured patients.

The grant is a portion of $1.6 million awarded to 37 organizations throughout Virginia as part of VHCF’s RxRelief Virginia (RxRVa) initiative, which was expanded in 2016 with an increase in state funds. It now funds 51 MACs in 80 of Virginia’s 134 localities.

 

The Virginia Health Care Foundation is a non-profit public/private partnership whose mission is to increase access to primary health care for uninsured and medically underserved Virginians. The Foundation was initiated by the General Assembly and its Joint Commission on Health Care in 1992. Since its inception, it has funded 380 community-based projects across the Commonwealth, and its programs and partnerships have touched the lives of more than 600,000 uninsured Virginians.
