Sliding Fee Scale

If you do not have insurance and/or have low income, you may qualify for sliding fee discounts.  Eligibility for discount is determined using the Department of Health and Human Services’ Poverty Guidelines.  While you may sign a self-declaration of income upon your first visit, you must bring in proof of income before your second visit or you will be assessed the full charges for services.

Proof of income must be shown by:

  • Current pay stubs

  • Tax forms W-2 or 1099

  • Most recent profit and loss statements, if self-employed

  • Letter from your employer

  • Documents showing income from unemployment, social security disability or death benefits, alimony, child support, public assistance, pension, adoption assistance, divorce decree, separation agreement, or other court filed agreement with amount and length of agreement.
