We are FQHC CPAs who serve the needs of Federally Qualified Health Centers.

Federally Qualified Health Centers sit at a complex intersection of healthcare delivery and nonprofit accountability. You serve broad patient bases while navigating tight budgets, grant compliance, federal program rules and rising operational costs. It’s a tall order — and it requires advisors who understand your unique blend of priorities.

Your mission is care. Our mission is helping you deliver it successfully and sustainably.

At James Moore, we know FQHCs aren’t like traditional nonprofits or healthcare systems; you’re both. And that means your financial, operational and regulatory demands are too. We've served clients on both sides of this combination, providing the experience you need to address these unique challenges.

From maximizing reimbursements and optimizing revenue cycles to meeting HRSA, UDS and Medicaid compliance standards, we help you keep care accessible and funding reliable. Our team also helps you address challenges like staffing shortages, shifting payer mixes and complex grant reporting—so you can keep your focus on your patients.

Because we’re well versed in both nonprofit and healthcare accounting, James Moore has the expertise to address the concerns that FQHCs face. We’ve leveraged that knowledge to develop services tailored just for you, including:
