Erie Family Health Center accepts many different insurance cards. Which ones depend on:

• The specific Erie site at which you receive service
• The hospital you choose (if needed)
• And whether the patient is a child, adult or pregnant woman

  If you do not currently have insurance, Erie will help you learn if you qualify for coverage.

  If you have other questions about insurance, please talk to a front desk representative.

  Erie also accepts patients who do not have insurance and offers a sliding fee scale, which depends on your income. And, if you pay on the same day as your appointment, we will offer a discount as well. To qualify for this discount our records must indicate current proof of your income.

  Our front desk staff will be happy to go over the details of your specific situation. Please print, read, and fill out the below application and bring it to your next appointment to see if you qualify for our sliding fee scale discount program.
