The funding will also help UAMS address gaps in health care services in underserviced populations during the COVID-19 pandemic. UAMS received a $375,000 grant from the Walmart Foundation to help address gaps in health care access. Part of the grant will allow UAMS to set up translation services for its HealthNow hotline that provides patients in Arkansas real-time access to a health care provider via video chat using a smartphone, tablet or computer. A separate $500,000 grant to the Arkansas Community Foundation from the Walmart Foundation will help expedite a coordinated response to food insecurity by establishing the Northwest Arkansas Equitable Food Response and Relief fund, which UAMS will direct. Through that fund, UAMS will coordinate grants ranging from $5,000 to $50,000 to organizations working to address COVID-19-related food insecurity in Washington, Benton, Madison and Carroll counties. This is a rapid response funding opportunity and is available for quick disbursement and utilization.
