About Spring Valley Family Counseling Center

Spring Valley Family Counseling Center is a federally qualified health center (FQHC) located in Spring Valley, CA. Fees follow a sliding scale set by household income and size. Under the federal Health Center Program rules, a household at or below the federal poverty guidelines gets a full discount (the center may charge a small flat fee), discounts shrink as income rises to twice the guidelines, and above that the regular fee applies (HRSA). Federal rules (42 CFR 51c.303(g)) require it to try to bill Medicaid, Medicare and private insurance when you have them, but which plans it takes varies, so ask when you call.
