Rural Health Clinic (RHC) locations are visible when Rural Health Clinics and Facility and Point Health Professional Shortage Areas (HPSAs) are selected in the Explore Health Related Facilities tool. They are represented by a maroon or purple cross on the map. The two datasets are maintained by separate entities which explains this overlapping. The maroon locations come from CMS while the purple come from HRSA, and both are maintained separately from the health center data. HRSA's list of RHCs have gone through an additional certification process to be designated as a facility HPSA. Service area information is not available for RHCs.
