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.
Rainelle Medical Center, Inc. provides dental services and its satellite locations have a system in place to determine eligibility for patient discounts adjusted on the basis of the patient’s ability to pay, known as our sliding fee discount system.
The system provides from up to a full discount down to only a nominal fee to individuals and families with annual incomes at or below 100% of the Federal poverty guidelines. For those with incomes between 100% and 200% of the Federal poverty guidelines, fees are charged in accordance with our sliding fee discount policy based on family size and income. This sliding fee scale is available at all of our sites.

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.
