 Tools
to Prepare Providers for Underserved Areas
The National Health Service Corps (NHSC) Educational Program for Clinical
and Community Issues in Primary Care is a series of educational materials
and activities designed to interest health professional students and
practicing clinicians in providing culturally competent primary care
services to medically underserved communities. It was developed in response
to the need to effectively prepare and encourage current and future
generalist practitioners to provide medical care to disenfranchised
populations. The American Medical Student Association (AMSA) Foundation,
under contract with the NHSC, updated and added modules to the original
set developed by AMSA for the NHSC in 1981. These modules were developed
by experts in the field, with input from health professional students,
educators and primary care providers from underserved practices.
