The short answer
A Look-Alike is a health center that HRSA has designated as meeting the Health Center Program requirements, without the federal grant. For a patient, the experience is meant to be the same: a sliding fee discount and care regardless of ability to pay. For the organization, the designation allows FQHC payment from Medicare and Medicaid.

Common questions
- Is a Look-Alike a lower standard than an FQHC?
- No. HRSA holds Look-Alikes to the same Health Center Program requirements. The difference is the federal grant.
- How many FQHC Look-Alike sites are in Indiana?
- HRSA’s public file lists 161 active Look-Alike service delivery sites in Indiana as of 2026-07-17.
- Is a site on this list verified or accepting patients?
- No. A site appears because HRSA listed it as an active FQHC or FQHC Look-Alike service delivery site on the snapshot date. We do not check licences, hours, or whether a site is taking new patients. Call the site, or use HRSA’s Find a Health Center for the live federal record.
