Are you without Health Insurance? M.O.P.E.D. can help!
The M.O.P.E.D. program was established to make a difference in people’s lives. There are critical economic challenges currently affecting many people in our community. M.O.P.E.D. is part of Broward Health’s commitment to provide our community with world-class healthcare, just like we have for more than 50 years.
Patients come into the M.O.P.E.D. office where they are greeted and given a pager to wait to see a member of the staff. There are no lines and wait times are less than 25 minutes. To accommodate a wider span of the population, we employ staff members who speak English, Spanish and Creole.
M.O.P.E.D. offers support in eligibility processing for financial assistance, Medicaid, charity care/tax funds and other State and Federally funded programs. Application assistance for food stamps, discounted phone service and temporary cash is also available.
All paperwork and forms for the application process are conveniently done in the M.O.P.E.D. office, which allows for faster processing. Patients are supervised by a staff member throughout the entire process, and are required to bring their medical bill(s), personal forms and documents, and identification with them in order to complete the application process. More than 23,000 patients visited the M.O.P.E.D. office in the first year of operation.
