If you haven’t read it, please do so! The proposed new & expanded health center will be a boon to our present and burgeoning population.
I am also writing to make sure that all of you understand something wonderful about the Rinehart Clinic, now re-named the Nehalem Bay Health Center & Pharmacy.
The Rinehart Clinic has a sliding scale payment schedule. NO ONE IS TURNED AWAY FOR INABILITY TO PAY. I personally know of a young mother with very young children who was able to see a doctor at the Rinehart Clinic for $5-10.
THIS IS STILL TRUE TODAY.
AND, THIS SLIDING SCALE PAYMENT SCHEDULE WILL STILL BE IN PLACE IN OUR NEW AND EXPANDED HEALTH CARE CENTER.
I find this amazingly astounding. Does anyone know of any other rural health clinic that understands that EVERY ONE should have access to health care?
Please join me, and Lloyd Lindley, and many others, in voting YES for the Health District bond measure.
