Sliding Fee Application and Letter
What is the Sliding Fee Program?
The Sliding Fee Program is a federally funded program that provides a discount to patients who are uninsured or underinsured. This program allows qualifying patients to receive physician office/Behavioral Health/Dental services at UGL at a reduced rate after any insurance, if applicable, has processed the claim.
A minimum co-payment is due at the time of service for all discounted services received.
Who is eligible for the Sliding Fee Program?
Uninsured and underinsured patients may qualify for the Sliding Fee Program. Patients currently enrolled in other discounted health care programs such as the Western Upper Peninsula Health Access Coalition (WUPHAC), Marquette County Access Coalition or local Charitable Care Programs are encouraged to apply. Federal guidelines require us to take household size and household income into consideration when determining an applicant’s eligibility.
Where does the Sliding Fee Program apply?
The Sliding Fee Program applies to qualifying patients who receive services at any Upper Great Lakes Family Health Center location.
