Every center listed provides care regardless of your insurance status, with fees set by your income, so a visit costs less, or nothing, when you earn less. Bring a photo ID and proof of income to your first visit, and ask whether they can enroll you in Medicaid or marketplace coverage the same day.
Of the 32 centers listed in Boston, 32 offer sliding-scale fees, 32 accept Medicaid, and 32 treat uninsured patients. Call ahead to confirm new-patient availability and bring photo ID and proof of income (a paystub or self-declaration). FQHC patient navigators can enroll you in Medicaid or marketplace coverage the same day you are seen.
