Public Health Clinics Altering
Free-Status Policy Statewide
CLIFTON - Public health
clinics offered by the Texas
Department of Health are un
dergoing changes statewide in
which patients will be asked to
pay part or all of the minimum
costs of their services.
Health Department officials
explained, ‘Because of an in
crease in the number of clients
we serve, and an increase in
health care cost, the clinic's
resources are under a strain.
Government funding can no
longer meet.the demand for the
services we want to continue
providing for you and your
family."
The new pay system goes into
effect Sept. 1 statewide. Officials
stress that the new payments
system is designed so that “no
persons will be denied any of our
services even if they can't afford
to pay. But persons who can af
ford to help will be expected to
do so."
Depending on individuals' cir-
cumstances, one person may pay
less or more than another per-
son receiving the same service.
The system uses a sliding scale
to set levels of eligibility, simi-
lar to other publicly funded
programs.
“Service Fee Collection does
not change any of the services
we have offered in the past,” say
officials. "The fees will be based
on your ability to pay part of the
cost. Your payment will never
be more that what the service
costs the clinic. And some serv-
ices will still be free to you.”
The amount patients will be
asked to pay is based on income,
the size of one's family, and the
type of service needed. No one
will be asked to pay more than
$10 per person.
Officials say that all the
money collected goes to the
Texas State Treasury to pay for
the services needed. “Your pay-
ment, if any, will be confiden-
tial," they added.
“Thank you for cooperating
with us and helping to support
the services you and so many
others need,” Health Depart-
ment officials said. "Patients
paying what they can afford will
help all Texans, including your-
self, to continue to get public
health services."
