Southern Jersey Family Medical Centers

What Southern Jersey Family Medical Centers does

Southern Jersey Family Medical Centers, Inc. (SJFMC) is a private, non-profit Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) founded in 1977 (originally as Sa-lantic Health Services) to provide healthcare to farm workers in South Jersey. Headquartered in Hammonton, New Jersey, with a corporate office in Marlton, SJFMC now operates eight physical health center locations across Atlantic, Burlington, and Salem Counties, serving over 53,000 patients and generating approximately 161,000 patient visits annually with a staff of nearly 250. The organization also operates the Mobile Medic mobile health unit and the SJFMC Farmacy community-garden program.

SJFMC delivers a coordinated suite of primary and specialty care services — including primary care, pediatrics, women's health (OB/GYN), dental care, behavioral health, podiatry, and 340B pharmacy — under a Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH) model. The technology layer consists of the MyChart patient portal (powered by OCHIN) for scheduling, records access, secure messaging, and telemedicine, alongside a telemedicine platform spanning adult medicine, pediatrics, OB/GYN, mental health, dental consults, and chronic disease management, and RETI NAVUE equipment for diabetic retinal screening. The organization is NCQA PCMH Level 3 certified at six eligible sites and holds HRSA Access Enhancer, HRSA Health Disparities Reducer (2020), and AHA/AMA Target: BP Gold recognitions.

Revenue is generated primarily through insurance reimbursements (Medicaid, Medicare, NJ FamilyCare, and major private payers such as Horizon, Aetna, and UnitedHealthcare), supplemented by a sliding-fee scale for uninsured patients, the 340B drug discount program, and federal/state grants including a 2012 Affordable Care Act grant of nearly $3.12 million. SJFMC is governed by a community-controlled Board of Trustees (83% of whom are patients) and is led by an interim President/CEO, CFO, interim CMO, and Dental Director, with no parent company or private equity ownership.
