Service-Delivery Models and Program Development Support development of Minimum Program Requirements and related gap, opportunity, risk, and readiness analyses. Support evaluation of multiple potentially viable service-delivery models and configurations by organizing benefits, limitations, requirements, risks, costs, workforce, regulatory, accessibility, and implementation considerations associated with each approach. Models may include fixed-site, FQHC-based, mobile, modular/portable, hub-and-spoke, hybrid, and other approaches identified during planning.
