Support That Meets You Where You Are

We believe healthcare should be accessible, affordable, and rooted in compassion. Whether you’re navigating financial uncertainty or need help accessing essential services, Chambers Health offers a variety of assistance programs to help meet your needs.

From sliding fee discounts to community-based support, we’re here to remove barriers so that you can focus on your health and well-being.

Sliding Fee Program

At Chambers Health, we are committed to making healthcare accessible for everyone. As a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC), we provide services to all patients, regardless of income, insurance status, or ability to pay.

Our Sliding Fee Program helps reduce the cost of care for individuals and families who qualify. Discounts are based on household size and income, in accordance with Federal Poverty Level guidelines.

Uninsured patients will meet with a Benefits Specialist during their first visit to:

  • Complete a brief income screening
  • Explore eligibility for available assistance programs
  • Determine the appropriate fee based on our sliding scale

Our organization does not discriminate based on race, color, national origin (including limited English proficiency), religion, age, sex, gender identity, disability, or sexual orientation.

Grant Applications

Chambers Health may offer limited grant-funded assistance to cover specific services for qualifying patients. Our team can guide you through the application process and determine if you’re eligible.

What Are Social Determinants of Health?

Health is shaped by more than just doctor visits. Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) include factors like:

  • Housing and transportation
  • Nutrition and food access
  • Social connection and support systems

The Chambers Cares program works to identify and address these non-medical barriers, ensuring that seniors and at-risk individuals have what they need to stay safe, nourished, and well-connected in their community.

"The home-delivered meals have been a blessing. I feel seen, supported, and part of something bigger."
