As well, they offer Reduced Fees Patients who are uninsured or under-insured (no insurance to cover office visits) may apply for our Sliding Fee Scale Program, which is based on household size and gross income. In order to qualify, patients must complete an application and provide proof of income for all adults in the household, including social security benefits and child support for children in the home. Also to qualify patients must meet with a financial counselor prior to their appointment to review the application and income documents to determine eligibility and amount of discount. Keep in mind eligibility for reduced fees is reevaluated annually.
A full payment is expected at the time of service from patients who do not have insurance and are not eligible for reduced fees.
Sliding fee scale payments and Insurance co-payments are due prior to seeing the doctor.
Since this is a sliding fee scale clinic, we have provided the Federal Poverty Guidelines below. Visit the Cassopolis Family Clinic website listed above to see what the level is needed for free care.

*Alaska and Hawaii have different rates for HUD federal poverty guidelines.
These numbers above represent 100% of the Federal Poverty Rate. In order to get reduced or free services from some clinics, they use a sliding fee scale based on your income.When they use a sliding fee scale, the 100% rate can be different than 100%. In those cases, using for example a 200% federal poverty level, you will only need double the 100% number listed above to 200%.
