All of our services are provided to our clients free-of-charge. Your donation will allow us to continue to realize our potential as your community supported free clinic. We rigorously screen our patients who receive services at the clinic to make sure they meet our eligibility criteria and do not have access to health care through traditional methods. Approximately 25 percent of our clients are Medicare patients - eligible to receive medication at the clinic when they qualify for our services.
The average cost of a patient visit at the clinic, including medication, is only $25. You can rest assured that we know how to stretch each and every dollar to provide the care that matters most to those who need it. The average yearly cost of health care and medication for each client at the clinic is $75. A family of four can receive their needed health care and medication for only $300 per year.
Since this is a sliding fee scale clinic, we have provided the Federal Poverty Guidelines below. Visit the Wheeling Health Right Center website listed above to see what the level is needed for free care.

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%.
