Welcome to Orange County's (Fla.) Primary Care Access Network's Web site. The Primary Care Access Network, also known as PCAN, is a dynamic collaborative between Orange County Government, primary health care centers, community agencies, hospitals and other social services. PCAN's mission is to improve the access, quality and coordination of health care services to the underinsured and uninsured populations of Orange County.
PCAN's mission is to find a Medical Home for everyone in Orange County (Fla.) and to make health care available to everyone in the community.
PCAN's activities are consistent with the federal Health Resources and Services Administration's goal to provide 100 percent access with zero percent disparity. To accomplish this goal, PCAN has been developing an integrated, comprehensive system of primary care centers. These centers provide medical homes for the uninsured and underinsured of Orange County.
Having a "Medical Home" means you have place where you can receive regular health care. PCAN centers see people without health insurance and assist people with limited incomes. Medical homes also treat patients who have private insurance or government-sponsored coverage such as Medicaid, Medicare and Florida KidCare.
