First Choice Primary Care offers a Sliding Fee Scale Discount Program to all eligible uninsured and underinsured patients. Discount levels and nominal fees are based on household size and gross household income. All applications for the Sliding Scale Fee program must be completed in person. Applications are accepted at time of service.
Patients applying for the Discount Program must show proof of income or provide documentation as required by First Choice Primary Care. Patients who fail to comply with this requirement will be responsible for the full bill.
Sliding Fee applications must be renewed on an annual basis or as determined by FCPC.
No patient shall be denied service based on race, color, sex, national origin, disability, religion, sexual orientation or inability to pay.
