Hope Clinic and Pharmacy

The Hope Clinic and Pharmacy breaks down the barriers to health...

Established in 2006, the Hope Clinic and Pharmacy is a free community initiative providing healthcare access to people from Boyle, Casey, Garrard, Lincoln, Mercer and Washington counties. To qualify, clinic patients must:

• Suffer chronic diseases of high blood pressure, obesity, diabetes, high cholesterol and/or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)
• Be below 150 percent of the federal poverty level
• Not be eligible for Medicaid or Medicare
• Lack private health insurance

Our clinic/pharmacy has provided nearly 2,000 clinic visits and nearly 12,000 prescriptions to low-income, chronically ill patients who lack insurance since our founding.

Our patient-satisfaction rate of 96.6 percent during 2009 exceeded our goal of 94.8 percent.

Community partners who work together in support of the Hope Clinic and Pharmacy include:

• Boyle County Health Department
• The Salvation Army
• Heart of Kentucky United Way
• The Presbyterian Church of Danville
• Ephraim McDowell Health
• Ephraim McDowell Health Care Foundation
