Project Access NOW (Portland-metro area)
http://www.projectaccessnow.org/about-us/
Connect low-income, uninsured clients to the donated primary and specialty care they need. Pay health insurance premiums for people who qualify for coverage under the Affordable Care Act but can’t afford the expenses necessary to access their care. Connect low-income people being discharged from the hospital to resources such as transportation, car seats, and temporary housing to help them get home safely and more easily access follow-up care
