Access to Care
Access to Care is a suburban Cook County program that helps uninsured and under-insured residents get medical care and medication.

The program offers:

  1. Sick care treatment from an internist or a pediatrician for only $5.00 per office visit
  2. Most prescription medications for $10.00 to $30.00
  3. Most laboratory tests and x-rays for $5.00

Physicians in the local area have agreed to give Access to Care services. A family living in suburban Cook County that has an income of less than 200 percent of the Federal Poverty Guideline would be eligible. Example: A family of four with an income of $36,700 or less with no health insurance (or a deductible of $500 for each person) and not eligible for Medicare or Public Aid.
