The DC Primary Care Association is a nonprofit, mid-sized organization in the hospitals and health care sector, based in Washington, DC. Its mission is to foster the development and sustainability of an integrated district-wide health care system that guarantees access to primary care and seeks to eliminate disparities in health outcomes. As a health action organization, it coordinates efforts among stakeholders to support improvements in the local primary care network. Its primary participants are member Federally Qualified Health Centers in the District, which rely on DCPCA to strengthen coordination and care management within the network. A concrete recent development is its 2023 partnership with the Primary Care Development Corporation to bolster coordination and care management among member FQHCs, with goals of mitigating patient risk, improving outcomes, and reducing avoidable hospitalizations.
