Payment

Our HCH Clinic provides health care regardless of ability to pay. A sliding scale based on family size and income is used to determine the charge for each patient. Patients that are at 100% or less of the national poverty guidelines are charged a small fee. No HCH-eligible person is denied services if unable to pay. We accept Kid Care Plan A (Medicaid), Kid Care Plan B (CHIP) and some private insurance plans.
