Community health centers are primary care: they see patients regardless of insurance, charge on a sliding scale that is often $0, and can manage a condition like blood pressure or diabetes long-term. Our directory of free and charitable clinics lists centers by state. A same-day telehealth visit is self-pay and is not billed to Medicaid, so an ongoing clinic relationship usually costs less over a year. If you want a telehealth visit sooner:

For Black patients
If you are a Black patient being seen at Crossridge Community Hospital in Wynne, Arkansas, a few concrete steps:
- Bring someone with you. A partner, a relative, a friend or a doula can take notes, ask questions and speak up when you cannot. Under federal hospital rules (42 CFR 482.13(h)) you have the right to receive the visitors you choose, and the hospital must tell you about that right. It may restrict visits only for clinically necessary or reasonable reasons set out in its written policy, and never on the basis of race, color, national origin, religion, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation or disability.
- For ongoing primary care, our Arkansas provider directory lists Black clinicians who chose to be listed. Filter to your insurance first.
- If the hospital doesn't take your coverage, the closest Federally Qualified Health Center is listed under our FQHCs in this area. FQHCs serve every patient on a sliding-fee scale regardless of insurance status.
- For help paying for care, our Arkansas Medicaid guide explains eligibility, documents and how to apply.
- If you are treated dismissively or your pain is ignored, file a grievance. Every Medicare-certified hospital must run a grievance process (42 CFR 482.13(a)(2)): it must tell you whom to contact, accept a written or verbal grievance, set time frames for reviewing it, and give you a written decision. Concerns about the quality of your care or a premature discharge can be referred to Medicare's Quality Improvement Organization.
