Florida Health care grants

The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act effective in February
through the Health Resources Services Administration was granted an
extra $851 million in June. Health centers in the state of Florida
received $41,038,000 in CIP funding. The grants were dispersed to 50
federally authorized health center grantees in Florida and 1,100
across the nation. These funds will be used for the desperately needed
repair and renovation for thousands of health care centers nationwide.
The funds will also be used to purchase updated equipment. Because
more Americans are losing their health insurance or cannot afford
insurance they are turning to these health centers for care. Should
these health care centers receive all of these grants?
