Find Out if You Qualify

Eligibility at Marillac Clinic is the important first step to becoming a patient. Only an Eligibility Screener can determine final eligibility for you or a family member, but here are some basics to keep in mind.

All Marillac patients must be residents of Mesa County and be able to prove their residency with a valid Colorado Driver's License or ID, a current tax return, or vehicle registration with a Mesa County address.

Expanded Eligibility

You will need to provide proof of income. The Clinic has expanded its income eligibility, so even if you were denied eligibility in the past, you might consider re-applying. A family of four could have income and assets as much as $53,000 and might still be eligible for care at Marillac. A single individual could make as much as $26,000 and might still qualify for care. (Full month proof of income will be required: a pay stub within the last 30 days, SSI statement, or an unemployment check stub.)

Marillac is not a free clinic, but once you have established eligibility, services you qualify for will be available on a sliding scale. Your co-pay, which is due at the time of service, is based on your ability to pay. Marillac participates in the Colorado Indigent Care Program (CICP). CICP helps determine your co-pay by such factors as household size, income and assets.

Marillac Clinic does not accept private insurance, however, the Dental Clinic accepts insurance such as CHP+ and Medicaid for some services.

Veterans may qualify for some services at Marillac, some dental services and optical services are available to veterans. If you are a veteran, call the Clinic to make an eligibility appointment.
