Centerville Clinics

Centerville Clinics is a long-standing and highly regarded non-profit community-based health organization, officially designated as a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC). Founded in 1955 by Joseph A. Yablonski, an International Board Member of the United Mine Workers of America, its origins trace back to a mission to provide accessible healthcare to miners and the broader community in Southwestern Pennsylvania. Initially known as the Union Miners Building, Inc., it rapidly expanded its services and locations, evolving into the comprehensive healthcare network it is today. With a network of 12 medical, 5 dental, and 10 behavioral health sites, Centerville Clinics serves Fayette, Greene, and Washington counties. They are committed to providing "total health care for the entire community," offering a vast array of services to individuals across all stages of life. Their primary care services encompass family practice, internal medicine, obstetrics and gynecology, pediatrics, and podiatry. In addition to general medical care, Centerville Clinics offers extensive specialty services, including dentistry (preventative, cleaning, restoration, laboratory services), dermatology, endocrinology, gastroenterology, industrial/occupational medicine, psychiatry, radiology, and urology. Diagnostic services such as laboratory tests, X-rays, EEG/EKG, and pulmonary function tests are also available. A significant aspect of Centerville Clinics' offerings is their robust behavioral health program, which includes outpatient mental health services, case management, telepsychiatry, partial hospitalization, and psychological evaluations. They also address specific community needs with programs like the Coal Workers and Chronic Respiratory Disease Program, demonstrating a commitment to the health challenges prevalent in their service area. As an FQHC, Centerville Clinics is dedicated to providing affordable care. They operate on a sliding fee discount program, where fees are determined by household size and income relative to federal poverty guidelines, ensuring that quality healthcare is accessible to all, regardless of their ability to pay. They process various insurance forms, including CHIPS and Medicaid, and assist patients in accessing specialty and hospital care services not directly available at their centers. Centerville Clinics is governed by a Board of Directors, with at least 51% comprised of clinic patients, reinforcing their community-centric approach. Their long history, extensive services, and commitment to accessible, high-quality care solidify their position as a vital healthcare provider in Southwestern Pennsylvania.
