This is a SLIDING SCALE clinic. The costs for clinic services are based on either your income or they offer type of financial assistance. Contact the clinic directly to discuss prices for individual services which vary. Sliding Scale does not necessarily mean free.
Cornell Scott-Hill Health Center is a federally qualified community health center established in 1968 in a collaboration between the community and Yale School of Medicine.
Sliding Fee Scale
The Cornell Scott-Hill Health Center seeks to make its services more affordable for uninsured, low-income patients. If you are uninsured and a low-income patient, you may qualify for reduced fees based on your income. This is called a sliding-fee scale.
You may apply for one of five discount levels, based on annual income and family size. The discount off of the standard charges will remain valid for one year after the date of application, unless you qualify for or secure insurance coverage in the interim.

Many communities have clinics that charge little or nothing for dental care. They are usually run by nonprofits, community health centers, dental schools and local health departments, and they often rely on grants, donations and public funding. Some serve everyone on a sliding fee scale, while others focus on children, seniors or people without insurance. Every clinic sets its own rules, so call ahead and ask what you qualify for.
