 The funding, which was authorized by Congress in
the Coronavirus Preparedness and Response Supplemental
Appropriations Act, includes $307,257 for 18th District health
centers.
“Across central and west central Illinois, communities and our
health system are feeling the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak,” said
Rep. LaHood. “As I have heard directly from hospitals, doctors,
nurses, and clinics throughout my district, they need more
resources. I am pleased to see this funding allocated, which will
better equip community health centers to respond to increases in
patients due to the coronavirus. I’ll continue to work with my
colleagues to support those on the frontlines of our response and
ensure our region has the resources it needs to combat COVID-19.”
