How It Works

A Simple Place to Start

You don’t need to have every answer today. Use the checkup to see which parts of your organization’s work you may want to review more closely.

Answer the Questions

Consider how your health center uses providers and delivers care across different services and settings.

Note What Stands Out

Mark any “Yes” or “Unsure” responses you’d like to discuss. An answer alone does not establish a coverage gap.

Start a Conversation

Bring your questions to LHA Trust Funds. We can help you explore the circumstances and discuss coverage considerations for your organization.

Inside the Checkup

Where Coverage Questions May Arise

Your health center’s work may extend beyond its primary site and employed care team. The checkup prompts you to consider situations such as:

  • Independent contractors, locum tenens physicians, and volunteer providers
  • Care at mobile or school-based clinics
  • Telemedicine and services outside an approved site
  • Clinical research and other specialized services

These questions are a starting point for discussion, not a determination of whether FTCA protection applies to a particular activity.
