At Henry Ford Macomb Hospitals, our mission to provide Macomb County residents with the best possible healthcare requires us to extend services well beyond the four walls of our hospitals. Our ultimate goal is to keep people healthy. To do that, we are partnering with other community-based organizations to expand and maintain healthcare access for all residents of our community, including the uninsured. Our Neighbors Caring for Neighbors clinics are one way we extend our care.

These numbers above represent 100% of the Federal Poverty Rate. In order to get reduced or free services from some clinics, they use a sliding fee scale based on your income.When they use a sliding fee scale, the 100% rate can be different than 100%. In those cases, using for example a 200% federal poverty level, you will only need double the 100% number listed above to 200%.
