The number of uninsured Americans is reaching the 50 million mark, or about 15 percent of our country’s population.  Indiana residents are seeing this trend in their own home towns with many of their friends and neighbors having to go without health insurance. 

Bloomington Hospital believes affordable healthcare should be available to everyone. We partner with local, state, and national agencies to provide an Immunization/Walk-in Clinic at our facility on 333 East Miller Drive. This location is also the place for people to enroll in the federally funded Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) nutrition program, access the Positive Link HIV testing and support site, and the state-funded Hoosier Healthwise program.

Additional resources available in south central Indiana to help care for those without health insurance.  

In Bloomington, the Volunteers in Medicine (VIM) Clinic serves residents in Monroe and Owen counties who do not have health insurance and earn at or below 200 percent of the federal poverty level.  The Clinic provides primary care for adults (children of adults who qualify are referred to Southern Indiana Pediatrics for care), behavioral health, low-cost medications, dental care and much more.

In Paoli, the Jubilee Community Health Clinic serves individuals without health insurance who meet the standard Indiana poverty guidelines, and provides low-cost primary care for both children and adults from anywhere in south centralIndiana.  In addition, the clinic helps connect patients with hospitals, physicians and other health programs that offer more advanced services for a reduced fee.

Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) Nutrition Program 
This federally funded program, run locally by Bloomington Hospital, provides nutritional support for underprivileged mothers and babies in Monroe and Greene Counties. WIC has a direct and important impact on their health, reducing the number of doctor and emergency room visits for women and children and increasing the parenting skills in mothers.To qualify, participants must have nutritional needs, earn less than 185 percent of the poverty level, and live in Indiana. Women who qualify are covered throughout their pregnancy and for an additional year if they are breastfeeding (six months if not breastfeeding). Children are eligible until they turn five.There is no cost to participate in the WIC program. Bloomington Hospital provides a WIC certification and voucher pick-up site in Bloomington at 333 East Miller Drive.

Please note – The Greene County office of the Women, Infants & Children (WIC) program will be moving from Switz City to Bloomfield in November.  The office’s last day in its current Switz City location will be Wednesday, November 12.  The office will be closed the week of November 17 and will reopen at its new location (200 E. Main Street in Bloomfield) on November 25.
