Broward HealthPoint

Broward HealthPoint provides a sliding-fee discount for uninsured and underinsured patients. This means we can reduce your out-of-pocket expenses for your services, based on your household's income and family size. Once approved for a sliding-fee, your coverage is valid for one year. You must act to re-certify every year to maintain your coverage.

Please see the income charts below, which is based on the 2023 Federal Poverty Guidelines, revised annually by The Department of Health and Human Services. If your gross household income appears on the line that shows your household size, you may be eligible for reduced charges. The sliding-scale discount is calculated based on your household's annual income and the number of individuals living in your household.

To maintain eligibility for the sliding-scale program, patients are to present prove of their income on an annual basis (usually the anniversary date of approval of your initial application). Income is defined as wages, tips and other compensation including:

• Wages from employment
• Self-Employment Income
• Veteran's Benefits
• Worker's Compensation
• Income earned on investments
• Benefits from Social Security or other government programs
