Select a region below to learn how the clinics plan to use their 2008 grants:
- Southeast Michigan
- Brighton — VINA Community Dental Center, 400 E. Grand River Ave., 810-844-0240. A new clinic proposed to open in September, VINA (Vision, Integrity, Need and Action) will provide dental care and dental health education to Livingston County residents with little or no access to dental care. Located at the First United Methodist Church annex, it will use its $22,449 grant to purchase equipment and supplies for clinic operations. "Churches and other organizations that assist the poor have nowhere to send people needing dental care. Our clinic will provide a valuable service to uninsured, needy individuals," said Christine Love, D.D.S., fundraising chairwoman. "Dentists, hygienists and assistants all have been very receptive to helping staff the clinic."
- Brownstown Twp. — Wyandotte Clinic for the Working Uninsured, 23050 West Road, 734-365-3560. This clinic used its 2007 grant to purchase essential pharmacy, diabetic and lab supplies. It will use its new $22,439 grant to continue primary care and expand management of obese and diabetic patients. "We know that the uninsured are more likely to be diagnosed with an advanced disease and are sicker than their insured neighbors because they are more likely to delay medical care," said Nancy Zack, clinic administrator. "Thank you for your support and dedication in helping the uninsured in Michigan, and especially the Downriver area, which has been hit hard by the loss of jobs and benefits."
- Detroit — Cass Clinic, 3745 Cass Ave., 313-993-2530. It will use its $14,564 grant to purchase new medical equipment and educational tools on hypertension, diabetes and smoking cessation. "Cass Clinic has been operating more than 25 years to serve the indigent of Detroit's Cass corridor," said Robert Sherwin, M.D., clinic chairman. "The clinic sees up to 50 people each Saturday and is supported by donations and volunteer medical students and faculty from the Wayne State University School of Medicine."
- Detroit — St. Frances Cabrini Clinic, 1050 Porter St., 313-961-7863. The clinic used its 2007 grant to help renovate the parish convent center so the clinic can relocate there later this year and double its current capacity to help the uninsured. This year's $22,439 grant will support its program to assist uninsured patients in obtaining prescriptions. "Prescription assistance is the No. 1 reason why uninsured patients come to Cabrini Clinic," said Sister Mary Ellen Howard, executive director. "They have a chronic disease, but cannot afford to buy the medication they need to control it to stay alive and healthy and out of the ER. This grant from BCBSM will help us improve and expand our program as we move into our new pharmacy."
- Detroit — Joy-Southfield Health and Education Center, 18917 Joy Road, 313-581-7773. This clinic used its 2007 grant to support general clinic needs including lab and diagnostic work, helping patients obtain prescription drugs and vaccines, supporting diabetes management programs and purchasing women's health clinic supplies. This year's $22,439 grant will support clinic operations and help purchase lab equipment plus medication to improve care for its chronically ill patients. The grant will allow it to expand its service capacity 30 percent. "The funds will greatly enhance our primary care capacity and will improve the health outcomes of our chronic disease patients," said David J. Law, executive director.

The clinic will use its $20,000 grant to cover supplies and outside lab and oral surgery costs. "There is a large need for major dental work between the poor uninsured and the working poor with limited health insurance," said Louis Mahoney, director. "There are hundreds of people in the Detroit area needing extractions, partials and dentures who are either uninsured or underinsured. Your grant money will assist us to service the poor for approximately one year." The clinic presently sees an average 90 patients per month and anticipates a 30 percent increase this year.
- Detroit — St. Vincent de Paul Health Center at Cooley High School, 15055 Hubbell St., 313-837-5078. This clinic operated by the St. John Community Health Division at Providence Hospital used last year's grant to help relocate to a new clinic in Cooley High School to serve students and the community. It will use its new $22,439 grant to hire a pharmacy coordinator and purchase online tools to assist them in obtaining free and low-cost medications for its uninsured patients. "We are proud to serve the people in our free health centers with primary care, dental care, labs, diagnostics and secondary and tertiary care when necessary. St. John and Blue Cross have partnered for several years to meet the needs of the poor and vulnerable in Detroit; in this we have very similar missions," said Nancy E. Degroote, R.N., community health corporate director, St. John Health.
- Detroit — The HUDA Clinic, 1605 W. Davison Ave., 313-865-8446. The clinic used its 2007 grant to fund general clinic operations and provide free prescriptions and lab services. Its new grant of $22,439 will support expanding its hours to serve more patients. "Left undiagnosed and/or treated, the conditions for which our patients are seeking treatment can become life-threatening or fatal at their worst and have serious negative impact on quality of life at best," said Mitchell Shamsud-Din, chairman, The HUDA Clinic. "HUDA fully intends to pursue other revenue to ultimately double the number of patients seen. This funding will provide for a portion of that expansion."
- Detroit — University of Detroit Mercy Counseling Clinic, 4001 W. McNichols, 313-993-1093. The clinic will use its new $22,439 grant to purchase basic furniture, make repairs, provide transportation access to patients and manage daily operations. "The counseling clinic at the University of Detroit Mercy has provided free mental health services to clients from Detroit and surrounding areas since 2005," said Sheri Pickover, clinical director. "The current caseload comes from Detroit, Highland Park and southern Oakland County and includes adults and children from ages seven to 18. We appreciate Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan's grant because we are eager to enhance our service quality."
- Pinckney — Mission Medical Clinic, 1066 E. Main St., 734-474-4627. Opened in December 2007, the clinic will use its $50,000 grant to purchase office, medical and diagnostic equipment, a computer and clinic supplies as well as support operations. "Our patients come from across southeast Michigan; however, most are from Livingston County where we are the only free clinic, and we estimate there are more than 18,000 without health care," said Laura Goldman, a nurse practitioner and executive director. "We are filling an important need and more and more people will visit us."
- Port Huron — Peoples' Clinic for Better Health, 3110 Goulden St., 810-985-4747. This clinic serving St. Clair County is an extension of Mercy Hospital Port Huron. It will use its $22,439 grant to expand and renovate its clinic and pharmacy space, and create patient intake areas and a counseling office which now is in a converted closet. "This additional space will provide the solution to many needs by increasing privacy and confidentiality while giving the volunteers a more suitable atmosphere in which to work," said Linda Lalonde, R.N., clinic director.
- Southfield — Tri-County Dental Health Council, 29350 Southfield Road, 248-559-7767. The agency used a 2007 grant to provide emergency dental care to the uninsured through its Dental Emergency Assistance Program. This unique program screens eligible clients and matches them to volunteer dental offices in Wayne, Oakland and Macomb counties. Its new $20,000 grant helps continue the program. "Our dental emergency assistance program is unique to the tri-county area," said Karen Trompeter, executive director. "Rather than providing care at one location, patients are treated in the volunteers' offices free of charge. This funding will ensure that free treatment for dental infection and relief of pain is available to hundreds of our most vulnerable citizens."
- Ypsilanti — Hope Medical Clinic, 103 Arnet St., 734-481-0111. It used last year's grant to support clinic operations. It plans to use its new $22,439 grant to do the same. "Hope Clinic serves low-income uninsured adults and children in Washtenaw and western Wayne counties," said Catherine Robinson, clinic executive director. "The grant will contribute to development of the new satellite clinic in Wayne, allow us to treat 1,300 new patients and form partnerships to bring increased access to prescriptions and minor surgery to our patients."
- Mid-Michigan
- Hillsdale — St. Peter's Free Clinic of Hillsdale County, 3 N. Broad St., 517-437-4041. The clinic used its 2007 grant to support clinic operations and help patients access other necessary services. It will use its $22,439 grant to fund a patient care coordinator, and expand a dental referral network and a cervical cancer screening program. "The goal of St. Peter's Free Clinic is to provide access to quality health care," said Jill Pavka, clinic director. "There is an ever-growing need for services provided by the clinic, and the financial support received from our community is always at risk. Thank you for this opportunity to work as partners to provide access to quality health care to all."
- Jackson — Dove Health Alliance, 1200 N. West Ave., 517-783-5334. Dove Medical used last year's grant to expand its dental program. It will use its new $22,439 grant to continue to expand its dental services for up to 500 new patients by networking with other organizations to provide dental services. "Dove Health Alliance has been bringing health care to Jackson County for 20 years," said Dian Breining, executive director. "We thank Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan for partnering with us to bring health care to a hurting community."
- Jackson — St. Luke's Clinic, 124 N. Elm Ave., 517-783-1117. It used last year's grant to purchase equipment and medical supplies and fund purchase of an office. The clinic was in danger of closing. It will use its $22,439 grant for clinic operations, its prescription medication program and diagnostic and office equipment. "We have more than 16,000 medically uninsured in Jackson County and many of whom we serve have lost their homes. Demand for our services has gone up dramatically since opening our new clinic. We are most appreciative to Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan for its generosity," said James A. O'Connor, D.O., medical director.
- Lansing and Mason — Care Free Medical, 5135 S. Pennsylvania, Lansing and 790 E. Columbia, Mason, 517-887-5922 and 244-0120. Its 2007 grant supported general operations. This year's $22,439 grant will support clinic operations, help develop a patient tracking program and continue volunteer physician recruiting including an optometrist and an ear-nose-throat physician to enable it to serve more patients. "In the capital area with plants closing and others downsizing, more individuals are in crisis than ever," said Barry Saltman, M.D., clinic founder, president and medical director. "Care Free Medical Clinic and Dental is pleased to partner with Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan and the community to offer this service to more than 5,600 patients currently."
- Lapeer — Loving Hands Health Clinic, 148 Maple Grove Road, 810-667-8933. It used its 2007 funding to support clinic operations and purchase a dental lab. Its $22,439 grant will be used to fund operations and purchase dental equipment, medical and diagnostic supplies. "It is the clinic's mission to provide a 'loving hand up' to help raise the self-respect and confidence of those who have 'fallen through the cracks' of life," said Cathleen Johnson, executive director. "Patient demand currently exceeds the availability of volunteers and services. This funding will help us increase and improve services, and provide needed medications and dental services."
- Flint/Tri-Cities
- Essexville — Helen M. Nickless Volunteer Clinic, 1480 W. Center Road, 989-895-4830. The clinic used its 2007 grant to support clinic operations. This year's $22,439 grant will do the same and recruit more volunteer physicians, plus purchase supplies and testing materials and high-cost medications not covered by patient assistance programs. Besides Bay County, the clinic — operated by the Bay Regional Medical Center — also sees residents of Arenac, Huron, Midland, Saginaw and Tuscola counties. "The need for services continues to expand at our clinic. The number of patients seeking care increases every month," said Joyce Hardy, R.N., clinic manager, and president and state coordinator of the Free Clinics of Michigan. "We are seeing sicker patients, some requiring hospitalization. The combination of higher numbers and higher acuity places a burden on physicians, nurse practitioners and physician assistants who work all day in private practice and volunteer in the clinic for four to five hours in the evening."
- Flint — Genesee County Free Medical Clinic, 2437 Welch Blvd., 810-235-4211. Last year's grant supported clinic operations and treatment programs including one focused on patients with hypertension. This year, it will use its $22,439 grant to coordinate and expand its dental care referral program, offer diagnostic and specialty care referrals and foster a partnership to redirect uninsured from emergency rooms to the clinic for care. "Lack of timely access to medical care and medications for uninsured low-income patients discharged from emergency rooms leads to an increased number of unnecessary and repeated visits," said Allen F. Turcke, M.D., clinic board chairman. "The free clinic will serve as a major designated temporary medical home for this population during their enrollment into the Genesee Health Plan or other health plans. This will benefit 65 to 70 patients a month."
- Saginaw — Community Prescription Support Program, 401 Holden St., 989-907-5602. The service provides free prescription assistance to the uninsured through Saginaw County's Healthy Community Partners and Healthy Futures free clinics and will use its $22,000 grant to hire staff and help enroll patients in medication assistance programs. "The need for our services continues to grow," said Michael Dunckel, executive director. "In 2007, we filled 21,860 free prescriptions for 6,480 individuals, an 11 percent increase over 2006. So far in 2008, nearly 20 percent of our clients are new."
- West Michigan
- Allegan — Seeds of Grace Free Health Clinic, 311½ Hubbard St., 269-288-0253. Opened in June 2007, this clinic serves uninsured in Allegan County. It will use its $22,439 grant to purchase medications, supplies and equipment to support its medical and dental care programs. "The Seeds of Grace Free Health Clinic is the only free clinic in Allegan County. It will also be the only clinic to provide dental care when a dentist joins the staff this year," said Judy Kranz, executive director. "Your grant will help us expand our clinic from one to three days a week, tripling the number of new patients. The clinic will improve the health of the uninsured by treating illnesses and symptoms before their conditions progress to more serious stages."
- Battle Creek — Nursing Clinic of Battle Creek, 34 Green St., 269-962-6565. The clinic will use its $22,439 funding for operations, to improve patient records and expand its volunteer base.

- Coldwater — First Presbyterian Health Clinic of Branch County, 15 Church St., 517-278-6068. Its 2007 grant was used to provide hearing aids and primary dental services, education programs, medication and supplies to diabetic patients. It will use its $22,439 grant to augment its dental care program, continue to provide health care to the community and upgrade equipment for Branch County residents. "Our clinic is the main source of medical, dental and pharmaceutical care to the uninsured in Branch County. Our clinic is adding 35 to 45 new patients each month," said Robert Montgomery, clinic board chairman.
- Grand Rapids — Catherine's Care Center, 224 Carrier N.E., 616-336-8800. The clinic's 2007 grant helped develop an on-site lab to perform more tests at lower cost, and help patients with individual treatment plans, education and follow-up. Its new $22,439 grant will help develop a sustainable patient education and disease management program for diabetics. "We never realized that when we opened 11 years ago, we would be the source of primary care for thousands of people. The financial support from your organization has greatly helped us to increase the number of uninsured clients we serve and do a better job of meeting the medical needs of this at-risk population," said Karen Kaashoek, R.N., clinic executive director and immediate past state coordinator for Free Clinics of Michigan.
- Grand Rapids — Health Intervention Services, 15 Andre S.E., 616-475-8446. Last year's grant supported its dental referral operations and helped recruit and train volunteers. This year's $22,439 grant will fund clinic operations. "Thank you for your commitment to the uninsured and undeserved of Michigan," said Sylvia Daining, president. "We hope to expand our services to the patients of other Grand Rapids-area free clinics and partner with them to provide a site where volunteer dentists can provide care."
- Grand Rapids — Project Access, 233 E. Fulton St. N.E., 616-459-1111. A joint project of the Kent County Medical Society and Kent County Osteopathic Association, it refers uninsured patients to participating physicians for care. It used last year's grant to support operations and a volunteer physician mentoring program. This year's $50,000 grant will do the same and also allows for a referral specialist to schedule patients to specialty care physicians. "Project Access has made it possible for people to receive care early on in their illness instead of allowing it to escalate because of fear of medical bills they could not afford," said Patricia Dalton, clinic executive director. "Thanks to organizations like Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan, Project Access can help people receive prompt medical attention and critical referrals to specialists."
- Holland — Holland Free Health Clinic, 99 W. 26th St., 616-392-3610. Its 2007 grant helped to support clinic services, including a free dental network, and to distribute diabetic supplies plus support an existing medication program. "This year's $22,439 grant will be used to continue supporting a substantial increase in the number of patients served, to open an onsite dental clinic while maintaining our free network of dentists, and to increase the number of minority patients in the non-English-speaking Hispanic population," said Jeff Compagner, executive director. "I would like to express our gratitude to Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan and the initiative to help free clinics improve the health status of Michigan's uninsured." The clinic expects to see a 15 percent increase in patients this year.
- Kalamazoo — Free Clinic of Kalamazoo, 2918 Portage Road, 269-344-0044. The clinic used last year's funding to support clinic operations in a larger facility. This year's $22,439 grant will support expanding its patient health promotion program, increase its walk-in patient visits 30 percent and its emergency dental program to more than 300 patient visits. "Demand for our services has greatly exceeded our expectations," said Jane Zwiers, R.N., executive director. "We projected 1,690 patient visits for 2007.

- Marshall — Fountain Clinic, 111 N. Jefferson St., 269-781-0952. The clinic will use its $22,439 grant to recruit more volunteer providers and pay for outpatient services such as mammograms, physical therapy and nuclear medicine, and to increase the number of dental patients seen monthly. "Your funding will help us pay for outpatient hospital procedures for which there is no other payer," said Mary Jo Byrne, executive director. "By recruiting more physicians, physician assistants, dentists and hygienists, we will be able to treat an additional 25 medical patients and 12 dental patients."
- Three Rivers — Riverside Health Clinic, 207 E. Michigan Ave., 269-273-3744. Last year's grant helped support clinic operations and maintain dental services and diabetic support programs. The clinic will use this year's $22,439 grant to expand emergency dental care and diabetic support services. "Blues funding has allowed Riverside to establish and maintain the only emergency dental care available for uninsured residents of St. Joseph County. Without this funding, the only access that this group has for dental emergencies is an emergency room. Funding supports our efforts to keep the uninsured from hospitalizations for conditions that could have been avoided," said Lucinda Kujacznski, clinic executive director. The clinic forecasts 75 to 100 more patients each month seeking dental and diabetic care.
- Zeeland — City on a Hill Ministries Health Clinic, 100 S. Pine, 616-748-6009. It used last year's grant to support and expand its clinic services. It will use this year's $22,439 grant to introduce a women's health initiative, dental referral program and physical therapy. "Our clinic, which opened its doors about 18 months ago, is the only free medical clinic in the county and provided care to 535 persons in 2007," said Kathy Van Til, clinic director. "Without your funding, the clinic would be severely limited in the scope of services it provides."
- Northern Lower Michigan
- Big Rapids — Hope House Free Medical Clinic, 15085 220th Ave., 231-796-0807. The clinic, based at Trinity Fellowship Church, will use its $22,439 grant to double the number of patients treated and begin preventive dental care in partnership with Ferris State University's dental hygiene program. It also will expand its prescription medication program, purchase medication dispensing software for patient record-keeping and acquire medical equipment and supplies. "Our target population is adults who have little or no access to health care because they are uninsured or underinsured living in Mecosta, Osceola, Lake and Isabella counties," said Jeff Bates, Pharm.D., vice president. "The very poor desperately rely on indigent medical programs such as this clinic. Funding will allow us to dramatically increase our impact and offer services that to this point have not been an option."
- Cadillac — Cadillac Community Health Clinic, 521 Cobbs St., 231-876-7818. The clinic used its 2007 grant to provide urgent care and primary medical and dental services. This year's $22,439 grant will help expand clinic operations, and support its evening acute care clinic, dental program and programs for diabetes and hypertension patients. It serves patients in Wexford, Missaukee, Lake and Osceola counties where 17 percent of the population is uninsured. "Your funding will have a huge impact on the clinic that may allow us to expand hours to two nights a week. We are attempting to provide a stable medical home that our more chronic patients do not have," said Lucy McGuire, clinic director.
- Cheboygan — Northern Care Center, 225 Water St., 231-333-3019. The clinic used last year's funding to help support clinic operations and maintain prescription, dental and eye care programs. This year's $22,439 grant will fund operations and help purchase office supplies and maintain dental, prescription and eye care programs. "From July 2007 through January, our total patient visits went from 436 to 786, and we have 79 new patients," said Kathryn Plume, executive director. "With the present economy we are seeing a drastic increase in the amount of clients. Without Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan funding we would be unable to assist them."
- Grayling — Au Sable Free Clinic, 1100 E. Michigan Ave., 989-348-0740. A 2007 grant helped the clinic pay for continuing operations. It will use its $22,439 funding to support operations and supply free medications to patients. The clinic serves uninsured in Crawford County and residents of Montmorency, Oscoda and Roscommon counties. "In the last six months our area has seen many long-time businesses close or reduce health care benefits," said Jeanne Hufnagel, R.N., executive director. "Our dental program, small but free, has been a huge success. If not for our Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan grant, the clinic would not be able to keep up. Because of this we are expanding our services and working with St. Vincent DePaul to open a homeless shelter that will include another clinic in our area."
- Manistee — Manistee Area Community Clinic, 50 Filer St., 231-723-9490. This new clinic is expected to open in August. It will use its $50,000 grant to open the clinic, for operations and training, to purchase office and medical supplies, and assist patients in applying for free or low-cost medications. "The Manistee Area Community Clinic plans to meet the health needs of the uninsured of our community with a holistic approach with the goal of education and counseling toward better overall health," said Penelope Dougherty, executive director. "We will look at the client and all of their circumstances and assist them in taking advantage of all available services. We also plan to assist them with dental needs."
- Petoskey — Community Free Clinic, 820 Arlington Ave., 231-487-3600. The clinic used last year's grant to support clinic operations and meet needs of the uninsured in the northern Lower Peninsula. It will use its new $22,439 grant to support a registered nurse to assist in patient intake and education. Goals for 2008 include a monthly women's care clinic for those under age 40, and possibly employment screenings. It also will provide diabetic care and supplies plus a monthly diabetic eye screening program. "A survey commissioned on the health of northern Michigan residents verifies the deterioration in health," said Nicki Kenny, R.N., director. "Compared with 10 years ago, 18 percent rated their health as fair or poor, a 5 percent increase. The number diagnosed with diabetes rose from 5.4 percent to 9.5 percent, and the number with angina or coronary heart disease is 8 percent compared to 5 percent overall in Michigan. This grant helps strengthen the clinic's capacity to care for the uninsured in northern Michigan." The clinic expects 275 new patients this year.
- Traverse City — Community Health Clinic, 3147 Logan Valley Road, 231-935-0668. Its 2007 grant helped support clinic operations and purchased equipment and supplies. Its $22,439 grant this year will help fund clinic and pharmacy operations. "The clinic now has almost 2,000 patients to whom we provide a health care home," said Meg Lancucki, clinic administrator. "Ninety percent of our patients have chronic conditions such as heart disease and diabetes. We are pleased with what we have been able to accomplish to date using these generous grants." Besides Grand Traverse County, the clinic also serves residents of Antrim, Benzie, Kalkaska and Leelanau counties and sees an average of 450 patients monthly.
- Upper Peninsula
- Escanaba — Care Free Dental Clinic, 115 N. 8th St., Escanaba, 906-789-1627. This new dental clinic will use its $10,500 grant to purchase a new digital X-ray system. It is staffed by 15 volunteer dentists and their assistants. "Our patient population comprises Delta County residents who are homeless or low-income and do not have dental insurance," said Paula Jacobs, R.N., president. "We are all aware of how debilitating acute dental pain can be as well as what a serious threat dental disease is to our overall health. The new X-ray system will allow us to see one to two additional patients each day."
- Marquette — Medical Care Access Coalition, 1414 W. Fair Ave., 906-226-4400. It will use its $22,439 grant to develop an acute care clinic, expand chronic disease management to include hypertension and purchase lab supplies for its dental program. "MCAC focuses its resources on low-income, uninsured adults in our community who lack the financial means to access health care services," said Melissa White, executive director. "This grant will expand new medical services for the uninsured in our county."
- Sault Ste. Marie — Community Health Access Coalition, 1108 Kimball St., 906-635-7483. Its grant in 2007 helped expand clinic capacity and recruit primary care providers, enabling the clinic to schedule more patients each month from Chippewa, Luce and Mackinac counties. This year's $22,439 grant will support clinic operations and purchase equipment, supplies and generic medications. "More than 4,000 uninsured live in the counties we serve," said Andrea Osborn, program manager. "According to a 2007 survey, nearly 80 percent of patients who responded said they would either go without care or visit an emergency room if the clinic was not available. The community reaps approximately a 9-to-1 return on Blues grant funding."
