Affordable Healthcare Centers Available for Women During Covid Crisis- NYS

One of the best-kept secrets in NYS and nation-wide is the existence of Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs), facilities that often provide more comprehensive healthcare for women, including pregnancy testing and birth control, than Planned Parenthoods (PPs). With the recent Covid-19 crisis, 11 PPs were physically closed in NYS, and 22 more have severely cut back. The need for alternatives is urgent.

Most FQHCs throughout NYS are open and continuing to provide vital healthcare to women. Services may include STD testing and treatment, family planning and similar medical services. Below is a list of such centers near closed or limited PPs. We expect to update the listing as we find changes or when people notify us of updates. Be sure to check the websites or call each center for exact hours and services.

It is important to note that FQHCs accept Medicaid and Medicare. FQHCs also offer language translation services.

If you know of additional alternatives, or have feedback to offer about the ones listed, please send it to info@fclny.org.

FQHCs are in all capital letters; clinics which were found through web searches, with a view to being good for low-income people, are in lower-case.
