Harris Health Financial Assistance Program (HHFA):
https://www.harrishealth.org/access-care/patient-eligibility
Harris Health System's mission is to improve our community's health by delivering high-quality healthcare to
Harris County residents. While medical care is not free at our facilities, there is financial assistance for those
who qualify.
Based on your household income, you may qualify for partial financial assistance, on a sliding scale. To qualify
for financial assistance, household income may not exceed 150% of the Federal Poverty Level.
All Harris Health patients are asked to make a minimum payment at the time of their hospital or clinic visit,
except for pediatric and prenatal care visits. Service fees do not apply to patients in the Healthcare for the
Homeless Program or other insurance plans. Insurance plan copays will be collected according to plan
requirements.
You will need to fill out a form and provide:
Identification (ID) (self and spouse)

Proof of address
Proof of income for the past 30 days for each household member 18 or older
Dependent proof for household members
Immigration status for each household member
Healthcare coverage for each household member
Harris Health's Financial Assistance Program is not an insurance plan. Harris Health does not provide health
insurance coverage under the Federal Health Insurance Marketplace Exchange.

Federally Qualified Health Centers
If you cannot get help from the Indigent Health Care Program, you may be able to see a doctor at a Federally
Qualified Health Center (FQHC) clinic that will let you pay on a "sliding scale." This means that the amount of
money you pay is based on how many family members live in your house and how much money you make. For
example, if you have a big family and make just a little money, you would pay less for medical care. If you have
a smaller family or make a little more money, you would pay a little more.
For more information and to find the nearest clinic, call the numbers below. Clinics that see adult patients are
listed alphabetically by city and clinic name.

screening program of The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center for asymptomatic women ages 40

Other Screening Programs
Free Colorectal Cancer Screening
Colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths in Texas, but the number of people dying from
this disease is dropping. One reason may be that colorectal cancer can be prevented by screening people who
do not have any symptoms of cancer.
The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center

is working with primary care clinics to get this life-saving
screening to patients in Texas communities who are not otherwise able to afford or access it.
The FIT stool test is a colon cancer screening exam you can do at home. It is easy and it may save your life. To
get a free FIT test through this program you should:
Have a low-income and no medical insurance

Be between 45 and 75 years old
Not have any symptoms of colorectal cancer (rectal bleeding or blood in stool, persistent changes in
bowel habits, unexplained weight loss)
Not have inflammatory bowel disease (acute diarrhea, colitis, diverticulitis, Crohn's disease or ulcerative
colitis)
If your FIT test from a participating clinic shows that you have blood in your stool, you will be offered a free
colonoscopy.
Contact a clinic from the list, below, to find out if you qualify to receive the free FIT colon cancer test. Patients
who have already been diagnosed with colorectal polyps or cancer,
or who have family members with colon
polyps or colon cancer, should talk to a health care provider at the clinic about screening options.
Clinics are
listed alphabetically by city and clinic name.
These projects are funded in part by the Cancer Prevention and Research Institute of Texas (CPRIT). For more
information, visit https://www.texascancer.info/prevscrntreat/colonscreen.html.
