MEDICAL INSURANCE
If your student has health insurance the MHC Healthcare will attempt to bill that insurance. If the insurance does not pay for any reason, the visit will be charged to the Teen Wellness Program and the cost absorbed by the MHC Healthcare. Please provide insurance information.

NO MEDICAL INSURANCE
If your student is uninsured an AHCCCS/KidsCare representative will assist parents with filling out an application and getting it submitted to the proper agency. Our office can provide you with a Sliding Fee Scale to cover xrays and prescriptions needed during the interim of AHCCCS/KidsCare eligibility determination. Xray's are NOT covered under the Teen Wellness program therefore you will need to call and speak with one of our Eligibility Specialists to schedule your screening for the Sliding Fee Scale. MHC Healthcare is working with Marana Unified School district to reduce the number of uninsured students in our school district

We believe that health care and education go hand in hand. A healthy student is a more productive student.
