OUR MISSION, OUR STORY The mission of the NOAH clinic is to be a beacon of light in our community, by ministering to the hearts, body and minds of families and individuals in North Omaha. Our mission involves creating a ministry that can be a safe gathering place for peo-ple to come experience the grace and forgiveness of God; a family of believers where they can find healing for the things that have hurt and wounded their souls; where they can \"belong to believe\", where they can be nurtured and disciple into faith in the one true God and in Jesus Christ whom He has sent. Just as the good Samaritan reached out to help the man that had fell among thieves, we are committed to do the same for those that are in need. Those who have been stripped of their raiment we will clothe. Those who have been wounded physi-cal and spiritually, we will bind up their wounds and minister a healing word to their broken souls. We will pour healing into their wounds with the love of Christ, and give of our own to help them. We will care for them and nurse them back to health. We will bless them, so they will be a blessing to others in need. The NOAH clinic provides care to patients regardless of their ability to pay. Our primary value is \"the needs of the patient come first.\" The NOAH clinic also provides services to meet the needs of people who are unable to pay for care. These services include: - Helping people find sources to fund their care, including opportunities to work with outside agencies. - Providing individualized payment plans, medical services at reduced rates or at no cost ' based on your ability to pay. The NOAH clinic has developed an expert, and very patient friendly process for directing people to alternative sources of funding for their medical care. NOAH clinic determines your need for charity care based on financial information and the medical services needed. The financial information includes your individual and family income, assets, employment status, family size and availability of alternative sources of payment. We also welcome donations of any size to further our program.
