Nevada Primary Care Association (formerly Great Basin Primary Care Association) (NVPCA) is the federally designated Primary Care Association for the State of Nevada. NVPCA is dedicated to assisting health centers and other community health providers with the implementation of solid business practices and community-responsive programs in an effort to improve service delivery effectiveness and efficiency.
Our work is based on maximizing resources, developing a strong intersection between medical care and public health at the community level, and using sound business sense in developing the capacity to serve those who do not have access to mainstream health care.

Community Health Centers (CHCs) are non-profit, community-based, and patient-directed organizations that deliver comprehensive, culturally competent, high-quality primary health care services. CHCs also often integrate access to pharmacy, mental health, substance use disorder, and oral health services in areas where economic, geographic, or cultural barriers limit access to affordable health care services.
Our conference was safe and successful. From our powerful key note speaker, Gloria Wilder, to our Health Care Policy Update with DuAne Young, Steve Messinger, and Lea Case. The second day also had the all too important cultural competency, with our own Reema Naik, plus UNR's Nicholas Dunkle, and Jay Cafferata.
NVPCA's Title X program also known as, Reproductive Education and Care in Community Health Homes (REACCHH) is funded by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) and administered by the Office of Population Affairs (OPA). The REACCHH program provides funding to Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) to increase access to comprehensive family planning services integrated with whole-person primary care services.
Substance Use Disorder (SUD) is a chronic disorder when a person's use of substances such as alcohol, nicotine, and/or illicit drugs such as opioids, creates health issues or problems at work, school, and/or home. Federal Qualified Health Centers (FQHC) can diagnose and offer prevention, provide treatment services or referral for addressing SUD to meet the health care needs in the communities in which they serve.
