Explanation
(This amendment provides additional funding to the Virginia Association of Free Clinics for the acquisition and dispensing of free and low-cost pharmaceuticals and medically necessary pharmacy supplies, and the provision of pharmacy services to low-income, uninsured patients of the Free Clinics throughout Virginia. Despite 40 percent growth in demand for free clinic services over the past three years, state funding has remained at the current level. Free clinics served nearly 60,000 Virginians in 2003.)
