What insurance plans can I use?

The Institute accepts Medicare, Medicaid, as well as many other major insurance plans.

What if I don’t have insurance?

• You can come to us even without insurance. Everyone is welcome, even if you cannot pay. Patients pay based on their income.
• We can help you get health insurance. Our social work staff can help you apply for:
  • Medicare
  • Medicaid
  • Family Health Plus
  • Child Health Plus
  • Family Planning Benefit Program

These programs depend on your yearly income. A social worker will help you find out if you qualify.

What about my children?

A social worker will help you apply for insurance for your children. Children may apply for Child Health Plus or Medicaid with their parents.

What if I can’t pay for my medicine?

Our social workers can also help you find low cost prescriptions.

• Institute social workers can help you find generic medicine at Rite-Aid, K-Mart, CVS, or Target. These medicines can be as little as $5.
• If you cannot afford your prescription medicine, we can help you apply for the Patient Assistance Program or 340B program. These programs get your medicine for free or for a low cost.
• You can apply for these programs even if you have no health insurance.

What if I am an undocumented immigrant?

We are here to help – call us for an appointment with a social worker. Children without documents may still be able to get health insurance. For adults, we offer discounted services based on your income. No one is turned away.
