health outreach
Public care initiative
Health outreach refers to efforts by organizations, governments, or healthcare providers to extend services and information to communities that might not otherwise access them.
Outreach often targets underserved populations—the uninsured, rural residents, or marginalized groups: The clinic's health outreach program provides free screenings in low-income neighborhoods.
It emphasizes going to people rather than waiting for them to seek care.
