Some SEARHC facilities are classified as Community Health Centers and receive funding from the U.S. Health Resource and Services Administration (HRSA) for providing health services in underserved areas. As Community Health Centers, these clinics serve all community members and offer services on a sliding fee schedule, based on income. This Sliding Fee Discount Program provides a mechanism that ensures services at the HRSA Clinics are available to all clients without regard for the person’s ability to pay. It provides a consistent and comprehensive set of eligibility guidelines for sliding fee discount management and a mechanism for collecting income level information for all patients, regardless of discount status. SEARHC’s facilities are FTCA deemed by the Federal Government.
