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.
Medical Care, Dental Care, Behavioral Health Care
Fairfax Medical Facilities accepts Medicare, Medicaid, SoonerCare, and most types of health insurance.
If you do not have health insurance, your fees for services are based on a sliding fee scale.
They want everyone that needs services to be able to receive them.
The sliding fee scale is a discount of charges for those who either have no insurance, or who have insurance but have a high deductible.
Also, it is for those whose insurance does not cover provided services. Regardless of whether you have insurance or not, you must still meet the income guidelines.
The sliding fee scale is a formula used to determine the availability of reduced charges to patients who qualify according to the number in the family and the average yearly income of the family.

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.
