How does the Marillac Clinic work?
We are a safety net clinic for the low income, uninsured residents of Mesa County.  We are not a free clinic, however, we offer a sliding scale fee on ability to pay.
 
How do I become a patient?
Your first step is to meet with an Eligibility Screener.  You will need one month proof of house hold income, a valid Drivers License or State ID, and your Social Security Card.  Once you've gone through Eligibility you'll be able to make an appointment.

What if I need surgery?
You will need to see one of our medical providers, and if surgery is necessary we work with several surgeons in the community and you will be referred to one of them.  They agree to see our patients at a discounted rate, but all payment arrangements must be made with their office.

Where are you located?
Our address is:  2333 N 6th St.  We are just one block south of St. Mary's Hospital and the south side of their parking garage. Our Palisade clinic is at 707 Elberta Avenue.

Do you help me get my medicines?
We do have an in house Medication Outlet that you can get most of your medications at discounted costs.  If you are taking medication that we don't carry or for long term, we also have a Medication Assistance Program where we assist you filling out applications to pharmaceutical companies to get your long term medication for free.

Can anyone come to your clinic?
Marillac Clinic serves the low income, uninsured families of Mesa County.

What if I have an emergency?
If you feel that you need to be seen by a medical provider immediately you need to call the clinic at 255-1782, we offer same day urgent care appointments.  If your condition is more complex and requires immediate medical attention that we cannot offer, you can go to either emergency department in town.  Both Community Hospital and St. Mary's Hospital Emergency Rooms participate in the CICP program.

What is the connection between Marillac Clinic and St. Mary’s Hospital?
We are both sponsored by the Sisters of Charity of Leavenworth Health System.  We share the same mission and values.  We closely coordinate care plans for patients so that they receive the right type of care at the right time.  St. Mary’s provides significant in- kind and cash support to continue the mission of Marillac Clinic.

What if I need to see a Specialist?
We work with several specialists in the community.  If your provider feels it is necessary for you to see a specialist, an appointment will be set up for you.  It will be at a discounted rate, and all payment arrangements will need to be made through their office.

What are your hours?
We are open Monday-Friday 8:00am-5:00pm. On Thursday, the clinic does not open until 8:45 am.
