 We offer a discounted self-pay rate. It is my goal to offer assistance for those in need. 

 I will not be able to offer 340B medication assistance to my patients in the beginning. While I am working toward this long term, it may take a year or more to qualify for this assistance program. In the meantime time, as long as you are not on Medicaid or Medicare, and meet the financial guidelines, you should be eligible for patient assistance from the pharmaceutical companies for name brand drugs. The pharmaceutical companies completely pay for the meds on these programs and they will mail a 3 month supply of most meds straight to your home. Our clinic can help you with this process, but to begin the process, simply type in the name of your drug and patient assistance and look for a link to the forms on the manufacturer’s webpage (ie NovoNordisk, Bristol Meyer Squibb, Pfizer, Merck, GSK, etc.)

For those on Medicare, please discuss the meds in question during a visit and we can work to devise a plan that works for you.

Reviewed results are typically available within one to two weeks. You may receive copies of the results from the lab company before your provider has had time to review them. Your healthcare provider will review the results the week they are recieved and nursing staff will contact you with the provider suggestions. If you have further questions or want to discuss them in more detail, we are happy to schedule a followup appointment.
