We require that all of our patients satisfy the requirements for financial eligibility before receiving a medical appointment. Eligibility screenings are held Tuesday and Thursday between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m., and Wednesday between 11:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m.
For your convenience, we make appointments for eligibility screenings. This process applies to first-time applicants and current patients who need to renew their eligibility status.

*If you are unable to provide proof of residency or income, you must complete the applicable form(s) below and bring them to your eligibility screening appointment.
Forms for Screening:
• Patients that do not have proof of address in their name must complete the documentation of address form and provide the necessary documents.
