A growing number of Texans are falling into a healthcare gap. Private insurance costs are up. They don't qualify for Medicare, Medicaid or our state's limited Affordable Care Act subsidies. Without good insurance, getting regular care for diseases such as diabetes, heart disease and asthma can seem impossible.

 

Since November of 2011, Open Arms Health Clinic has provided thousands of visits to people who struggle to pay for regular care. All OAHC patients have access to whole person care (general medical, specialist, counseling, social services and patient education for controlling chronic diseases.) They learn how to live healthier lives and take an active role as part of their own healthcare team, self-monitoring between appointments.

 

Clinic volunteers include office staff, interpreters, social workers and a variety of licensed medical professionals from the local community.
