City Prime Health offers access to quality health care for patients who don’t have insurance or don’t have enough insurance through a sliding fee discount program, with discounts available based on your current family size and income. The program can cover you for up to 12 months—a new application is required yearly or when your family size and income changes, whichever is sooner.
If you are currently enrolled as a patient at City Prime Health, stop by your doctor's office to inquire about the program.
Income guidelines:
The income guidelines for program eligibility are set based on the federal poverty level and a patient’s household size, as shown below.
