PolicyMap

PolicyMap is an online mapping application which contains over 15,000 indicators related to housing, education, mortgage originations, jobs and more. It’s fast, efficient and captures data in visually powerful ways through custom maps, tables and reports.

PolicyMap focuses on identifying communities of greatest need and matching them with local retail centers where clinics might be established. Using Dept of Health & Human Services data on Medically Underserved Areas (MUAs), the existing Federally-Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs), and supermarket and retail locations data from Trade Dimensions, they will identify those communities that could most benefit from this kind of retail-based approach.
