Federal stimulus grant to pay for clinic on west side of Pasco County, FL
St. Petersburg Times, March 5, 2009
A new health clinic will open soon in west Pasco County, FL, thanks to a $1.2 million piece of the federal stimulus pie. Premier Community HealthCare Group officials are searching for property in the New Port Richey area to set up a primary care clinic. The nonprofit company, which has clinics in Dade City and Zephyrhills, receives federal subsidies to provide healthcare to the uninsured on a sliding fee scale. It also accepts Medicare, Medicaid and private insurance plans.
