Does your child fall in the insurance gap? In other words, does your child neither qualify for Medicare/Medicaid nor receive private insurance coverage? If so, we have funding to provide basic physicals and basic dental checkups and services for children at the SW Health Clinic. This funding is specifically for children, including undocumented children. To schedule an appointment for a pediatric physical, call 352-334-7910. To schedule an appointment for a pediatric dental exam instead, call 352-334-8839. When you call to schedule, mention that you need funding from the Medical Guild Grant.
