This checklist is designed to support refugee service providers in collaborating with health care providers to facilitate newcomers’ health care access. It is meant as a starting point, not a comprehensive list. Feel free to change or add items as necessary. Note that this checklist is not a compliance tool for any specific grant or program; always reference your grant agreement and terms for specific program requirements. For more detailed tips, view the Switchboard guide Service and Health Care Provider Collaboration. This checklist was created in partnership with the Society of Refugee Healthcare Providers.
