摘要

In 2014, the Hawai‘i State Department of Health (HDOH) received funding from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), via the 1422 Cooperative Agreement, to conduct diabetes prevention and hypertension management. To implement one grant-required strategy—the engagement of community health workers (CHWs) to promote community-clinical linkages—the HDOH partnered with the Hawai‘i Primary Care Association and 9 federally qualified health centers (FQHCs). This qualitative evaluation case study sought to understand how 3 of the funded FQHCs engaged CHWs, the types of community-clinical linkages the CHWs promoted, and the facilitators of and barriers to those linkages. Evaluators conducted 2 semi-structured group interviews with 6 administrators/clinicians and 7 CHWs in April 2018. The transcribed interviews were deductively and inductively analyzed to identify major themes. First, CHWs made multiple internal and external linkages using resources provided by the grant as well as other resources. Second, CHWs faced barriers in making community-clinical linkages due to individual patient, geographic, and economic constraints. Third, CHWs have unmet professional needs related to building community-clinical linkages including professional development, networking, and burnout. Reimbursement and payment mechanisms are an all-encompassing challenge to the sustainability of CHW positions, as disease-specific funding and a complete lack of reimbursement structures make CHW positions unstable. Thus, CHWs fulfill a number of grant-specific roles at FQHCs due to this patchwork of funding sources, and this relates to CHWs' experiences of burnout. Policy implications of this study include funding and reimbursement stabilization so FQHCs may consistently engage and support the CHW workforce to meet their patients' complex, diverse needs. More professional development opportunities for CHWs are necessary to build sustainable networks of resources.
