Today, St. David's Foundation awarded Texas Health Action and Kind Clinic a grant to expand access to health insurance in Central Texas. Kind Clinic’s Patient Support Services team helps patients obtain insurance through the Affordable Care Act and navigate the complexities of labs, PrEP, PEP, and HIV care. 17% of Texans were uninsured in 2022, and approximately 40% of our patients are currently uninsured. This grant will help us reduce this percentage to better align with the statewide trend. More on this announcement: https://lnkd.in/g4Vm7NE7
