FQHCs aim to provide quality healthcare to medically underserved patients. This means providing services to patients who otherwise may not have access to affordable care due to financial hardship. As an FQHC we have a sliding fee scale for our patients and no one will be turned away due to an inability to pay.

Pivot is dedicated to providing free HIV and STI screenings to the LGBTQIA+ community by appointment. Prism Health provides comprehensive on-site testing for HIV and other STIs through either your primary care visit or our Pivot services.

• Prism Health patients are often struggling to make ends meet and pay for basic needs that impact their ability to focus on their health. Our patients often experience food and/or housing insecurity, a need for utility assistance, transportation assistance, and more. These are called Social Drivers of Health. As an FQHC Lookalike, Prism Health receives no federal funding, which makes it difficult for us to help patients with these basic life needs. Monetary donations to help support our patients' basic needs is greatly needed and greatly appreciated.
