Frequently Asked Questions About Our Clinic Network

• Is there a charge at free clinics?

  • Free clinics provide care for patients at little or no cost. Most are funded by donations, staffed by volunteers, and operate as nonprofit organizations. No one is turned away due to an inability to pay and patients are never billed for the services they receive. 

• Can anyone visit a free clinic?

  • The Charitable Healthcare Network clinics serve individuals from all walks of life who are facing many different barriers to accessing high-quality healthcare. Our patients include working parents, people caring for aging family members, students, and others who may not have access to employer-provided insurance or cannot afford coverage. They are contributing to their communities in meaningful ways, but are struggling with the high cost of healthcare. Our Network provides a crucial safety net for any individuals who might otherwise delay care due to financial concerns, helping them stay healthy and productive.

• Do I need an appointment?

  • Some free clinics require appointments, while others offer walk-in hours. It’s best to check the specific clinic’s details using our interactive map. Click on a clinic’s pin to find a nearby clinic, see whether appointments are needed, and how to schedule one.
