Do not take advantage of
each other, but fear your God.... If one of your countrymen becomes poor and is
unable to support himself among you, help him as you would an alien or a
temporary resident, so he can continue to live among you.... You must not lend
him money at interest or sell him food at a profit....(Leviticus 25) "The
Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to preach good news to
the poor. -- Jesus (Luke 4)

Jubilee Community Health was established in 1999 as a Christian outreach to provide medical care at a modest cost which people on limited incomes can afford to pay. Jubilee Community Health is a community-based non-profit organization, relying on the resources of the local community.
We keep our costs low by using volunteer staffing, using a low-cost facility,
eliminating expensive billing systems, and avoiding high-cost technologies
when possible. |
Our services include:
- Full Family Practice services, both care for illnesses and preventive care. Emphasis on use of low-cost medicines when these are effective. Higher-cost medications are provided free or at reduced cost, through special programs available from pharmaceutical companies.
- Free health screening exams and Pap smears for women 50 and over, through the Indiana Breast and Cervical Cancer Prevention program.
- Low-cost lab services, in cooperation with Bloomington Hospital of Orange County.
- Basic X-rays on-site, for $30. More complex X-rays and other major imaging studies are done at the hospital.
|
You are eligible for Jubilee's low-cost services if:
- You do not have insurance which pays for care in a doctor's office, or
- you do not have Medicaid or Medicare or other government health coverage.

Appointments are preffered.
