Medical Resources in Upper Kirby

The county health provider for Harris County is called Harris Health. The Harris Health System’s mission is to help improve your community’s health by delivering the best quality health care to you and your neighbors in Upper Kirby and all parts of Harris County. Medical care isn’t free at a Harris Health clinic but there, but it can be had at a significant discount

There is an income qualification requirement that you should be aware of. Based on the total income for your household you may qualify for financial assistance to help you see a doctor for whatever condition is bothering you. Other than pediatric and prenatal visits, those who are provided with care under Harris Health should be prepared to make a minimum payment upon receipt of services.

You can apply for benefits and care online, by mail or at a drop off locations. If you are denied coverage or assistance, then you can appeal that denial. If you are eligible for discounted hospital and medical care from Harris Health, then you must not earn more than 150% of the federal poverty guidelines as far as income is concerned.

A financial screening will be a part of your application process. This is done to determine where you and your spouse draw income from and what your abilities are to pay for medical care that you receive. As your financial circumstances change you will be responsible for keeping the Health System updated on those changes. You can be penalized for utilizing care through Harris Health when you otherwise would not qualify or even be eligible.

For families moving to a new area, trying to find quality medical care can be intimidating. However, when you move to Upper Kirby there are resources for you to take advantage of when it comes to your health and that of your children. This should provide you with peace of mind as you begin to learn more about the community that you call home.
