In conjunction with our Lend a Hand program, Harrison REMC wanted to bring attention to a program that is available to low-income underinsured and uninsured residents of Southern Indiana.

The Family Health Centers of Southern Indiana are independent, non-profit health clinics founded in 1992. Clinical services are provided by physicians, nurse practitioners, dentists and social workers. Clark Memorial Health, Baptist Health Floyd, Floyd Memorial Foundation, Harrison County Community Foundation and Harrison County Hospital as well as numerous other community physicians, organizations and grants support the services that provide care for patients.

The organization provides health services, testing and education to those that have no access to basic medical care due to lack of medical insurance. Patients covered by Medicare, Indiana Medicaid, and Indiana HIP are accepted. Fees are based on household income, family size and county of residence. No one is turned away based on the inability to pay.

To contact the clinics, here are the phone numbers for the locations: Jeffersonville 812-283-2308; New Albany 812-941-1701; and Harrison County 812-738-7576.
