What if I have insurance, but

I have a very high deductible?

At the Family Planning Association of Maine, we try to keep our services affordable for everyone.

We base all charges on a sliding fee scale, using the household income of each client as a guideline.

We also accept several insurance companies at our health centers. We bill the cost of most services to the insurance companies. If a service you receive is not covered by your insurance, our sliding fee scale is used to lower your cost to a reasonable amount.

For example, if you have a high deductible on your insurance coverage, we can bill the services you received towards that deductible. If the insurance does not pay, then we can adjust the amount you owe using our sliding-fee scale based on your household income. Quite often this lowers the amount to a very affordable cost to you.

This savings to you is possible because of other funding sources available to our organization.
