MCHC Whitesburg Medical/Dental Clinic is a vital component of the Mountain Comprehensive Health Corporation (MCHC), a non-profit organization established in 1971 to deliver quality healthcare services to residents and visitors of Eastern Kentucky. Located at 226 Medical Plaza Ln, Whitesburg, KY, this clinic is one of several satellite clinics operated by MCHC across multiple counties, making it a cornerstone of community health in the region. The clinic offers a wide array of primary and specialty care services, designed to address the diverse health needs of its patient population. On the medical side, services include pediatric care, family medicine, internal medicine, women's health (including obstetrics and gynecology), behavioral health, and pulmonary health. They also provide essential diagnostic services like laboratory and X-ray facilities. For dental care, the clinic offers comprehensive services for all ages, including cleanings, exams, X-rays, dental sealants, restorative treatments, and extractions. MCHC Whitesburg Medical/Dental Clinic is particularly committed to serving low-income, uninsured, and underinsured individuals. They accept Medicare, Medicaid, and private insurance, and importantly, offer a sliding fee scale program based on income to ensure that financial barriers do not prevent access to necessary care. The clinic also participates in the federal 340B Program, which allows them to provide medications at deeply discounted prices to eligible patients. Beyond direct medical and dental care, MCHC Whitesburg provides additional support services such as telehealth consultations for convenient virtual care, a secure patient portal for accessing records and managing appointments, and a nurse-on-call service for after-hours needs. The clinic operates with extended hours on certain days and is open six days a week, demonstrating its dedication to patient accessibility. With a large team of providers and support staff, it serves a significant number of patients annually, reinforcing MCHC's mission of providing "better health for a longer life" regardless of a patient's ability to pay.
