Impact evidence

Describes programs. Its tax return describes what it does but we have found no measurable results in it.

Programs described in its return (3)
  1. $35,427 spent. Chronic Disease Prevention and Intervention Program: In 2025, AAHC received the Maryland CHRC grant and a partnership with the Chinese American Doctor's Association to provide culturally tailored medical screenings for 69 high risk Asian residents. Program participants received comprehensive primary care consultations, BMI blood pressure monitoring, and targeted health education. Advanced diagnostics-including POCUS ultrasound, ECG, Spirometry, and full clinical lab suites, such as A1c, Lipid, CMP, CBC, were utilized to facilitate early detection and management of cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases among underserved populations.
  2. $877 spent. Clinical Facility Expansion: AAHC successfully secured a $399,000 state government capital grant to acquire a permanent clinical office space. This milestone acquisition establishes a stable, long-term foundation for our mission to provide cost-free medical care to low-income and uninsured residents. By transitioning to a permanent facility, AAHC has secured the infrastructure necessary to expand service hours, enhance patient privacy, and increase the volume of life-saving care provided to the community's most vulnerable members.
  3. $18,583 spent. Bi-Monthly Free Clinic Operations: Staffed exclusively by a dedicated team of volunteer physicians and administrative personnel, AAHC operates a free clinic on the first and third Saturdays of each month. In 2025, the clinic served as a critical safety net for 31 uninsured and low-income residents, providing essential primary clinical care that prevented unnecessary emergency room visits. This program leverages professional volunteer hours to provide high-quality medical interventions at zero cost to the patient.
