Community Clinic will treat any person(s) regardless
of their ability to pay.
When you visit
the Clinic, you may be asked to verify your annual
income. This can be done by showing your tax return
or other financial documentation to the receptionist
on your first visit. If you don’t have any
of these materials, don’t worry. We will find
a work-around so we can help you while still offering
steep discounts in providing medical services.
First, discounts are based on a sliding-scale
depending on your level of income in relation
to the federal poverty level adjusted for family
size. In 2003, the poverty levels for individuals
and families are:
| |
 One
person: |
$8,980 |
| |
Two
persons: |
$12,120 |
| |
Family
of 3: |
$15,260 |
| |
Family
of 4: |
$18,400 |
| |
Family
of 5: |
$21,540 |
| |
Family
of 6: |
$24,680 |
| |
Family
of 7: |
$27,820 |
This means
that if you (or your family) fall into one of
the categories above, you will pay a minimum
of $25 for a visit to the Clinic. If your income
is over the poverty level but less than twice
the poverty level, we will adjust your fee in
accordance with your ability to pay.
All fees includes a visit with
a physician, nurse or other
licensed
medical professional, and treatment. Treatment
can include such procedures as immunizations, casting,
care for cuts, the flu, prenatal care and so forth.

Second, if
you have third party coverage such as auto insurance,
employer-sponsored health insurance,
individual health insurance, Medicare, Medicaid,
Workers Compensation and so forth, your insurance
will pay Ochoco Community Clinic directly. You
will be responsible for paying only your
deductible and co-pay amounts to the Clinic.
We encourage you visit the Clinic or call us for
a full explanation of our fee structure. One of
our receptionists will be pleased to explain the
payment program and help you through the qualification
process.
