Lowering the Cost of Health Care

At Wood River Health, we believe cost should never stand in the way of getting the care your patients require. Our Sliding Fee Scale Program helps make medical, dental and behavioral health services more affordable for our patients based on their household income and family size. 

Eligible patients, whether insured, uninsured or underinsured, may receive reduced fees so they can access high‑quality care without added financial stress. 

Am I eligible for this program?

Patients qualify for this program based on gross annual income and family size. Participants can be insured, uninsured or underinsured.

Eligible patients will receive discounts on their medical, dental and behavioral health bills.

Anyone at or below 200% of the Federal Poverty Level will receive most healthcare services at a discount. 

Families below 100% of the federal poverty level will receive most health care services at a very low cost. 

The current Federal Poverty Level Guidelines are listed at the State of Rhode Island Health and Human Services.

How do you define a “family”?

A "family" includes the patient and others related by birth, marriage or adoption who reside together. Family also includes unrelated individuals living in the same household who are supported by (or are supporting) a family member. Foster children are not included in family size.

Households below 200% of the Federal Poverty Level are eligible to receive a discount.

Families can also receive discounts on medications prescribed by our providers. Call us to learn about our Community Benefit Program.
