The Ellsworth Free Medical Clinic provides free, high quality primary care with compassion and respect to the uninsured and inadequately insured. Volunteer healthcare providers care for patients, help with access to healthcare at all levels, and secure affordable pharmaceuticals. A small office staff oversees the clinic operations.
Programs include Primary Care Practice, Referrals to Specialty Physician Groups, Access to Prescription Assistance, Access to Free Care at Northern Light (income based), Dental Program, Mental Health Counseling, Physical Therapy, and Holistic Wellness.
EFMC does not bill patients, federal/state programs, or private insurance companies for services. Fully licensed volunteers (e.g., MDs, DOs, FNP’s/PAs, RNs, LPNs, and RPTs) provide almost all direct patient care. Most patients reside in Hancock County, but some come from as far away as Washington, Penobscot, Knox, Lincoln, Waldo, Kennebec, and Somerset counties.
