Context |
| Increase
by 1 percent annually the number of
people served through Outreach grants. |
ORHP has met this
performance goal for five of
the past six years. . |
This performance goal
refers
to the total number of rural residents
served by Outreach grants. The focus
of these grants is determined by the
community and therefore these grants
support a wide range of activities
to increase access to health care
services. The common measure that
cuts across these activities is the
number of people served. |
