Description
The UDS Mapper calculates this number. This is the percent of low-income (below 200% of the Federal Poverty Level [FPL]) residents in the user-selected analysis area who are not currently using a health center and will be patients of the new health center site. This is calculated as: Total New Low-Income Patients to be Served / Low-Income Population Currently Not Served by Health Centers.
