Abbreviations: AI/AN = American Indian/Alaska Native; COVID-19 = coronavirus disease 2019; FQHC = Federally Qualified Health Center; NH/PI = Native Hawaiian/Other Pacific Islander; NH = non-Hispanic.

* SARS-CoV-2 viral tests include polymerase chain reaction and antigen tests.

The Health Resources Services Administration (HRSA) funds health centers in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and the following U.S. territories and freely associated states: American Samoa, Federated States of Micronesia, Guam, Northern Mariana Islands, Marshall Islands, Puerto Rico, and U.S. Virgin Islands.

§ In June 2020, the number of HRSA-fund health centers was 1,382. By September, the number of HRSA-funded centers decreased to 1,376, by three in California and by one each in Massachusetts, Missouri, New Jersey, and Puerto Rico. By October, the number of Puerto Rico’s HRSA-funded health centers increased by one.

FQHCs receive HRSA Health Center Program federal grant funding to improve the health of underserved populations

** The weekly response rate was calculated using the number of health centers that responded to the survey as the numerator and number of current HRSA-funded health centers as the denominator. The response range represents the lowest response rate and the highest response rate nationally and by state during June 5–October 2, 2020.

†† Data for the number of persons receiving testing or who had positive test results are aggregated by health center before submission and cannot be deduplicated, which might inflate or misrepresent the number of patients who received testing or who had positive test results.
