PediPlace is a non-profit pediatric healthcare practice for children from birth through eighteen years of age who are uninsured or who qualify for Medicaid or CHIP (Children’s Health Insurance Program) benefits. We provide a medical home for children that tend to be from low income families who otherwise would go without care or who would unnecessarily use the emergency room.
Our primary care pediatric services are designed to meet the unique situation of each patient and include:
- Treatment of illnesses
- Preventive (Well-Child) care including immunizations
- Hearing and vision screenings
- Treatment of asthma and other chronic illnesses
- Referrals for specialized care
- Newborn parent health and child safety education
Our service model, primarily utilizing nurse practitioners, provides quality care at lower costs. While not a free clinic, PediPlace will not deny services if a family is unable to pay.
