The Southeast Regional Clinicians Network administered by the National Center for Primary Care at Morehouse School of Medicine (MSM) is a practice-based research network that consists of federally qualified health centers (FQHCs) and state primary care associations (PCAs) in eight southeastern states: Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee.. The network has had a longtime focus on Patient-Centered Outcomes Research to reduce health disparities in the primary care safety net, but has not conducted a needed assessment of regional stakeholders. The ultimate aim of this project is to contribute to the quality of care and clinical outcomes among medically underserved patients in the Southeast United States. This improvement will be achieved by engaging clinicians, staff, and leaders working in federally qualified health centers of state primary care associations.
