About this clinic

Our Emerald clinic is located across Raymond Street from our Raymond clinic. We opened this site September 2010 and relocated in July 2016 to the current location. We are a smaller satellite clinic with 14 exam rooms. Currently, the Emerald clinic houses Family Medicine clinics as well as a variety of specialty clinics. We take care of all types of patients and patients who speak a variety of different languages. Our specialty clinics currently include our Wellness Center (concentrating in HIV and PrEP care), Transgender Care, Refugee Screening Clinic, Idaho Health District TB Clinic, and Hepatitis C Clinic. We have 4 resident physicians working in our family practice clinics since 2013. Resident physicians have completed medical school and are getting an extra 3 years of training in Family Medicine. Resident and Fellow physicians have supervision by our faculty Family Medicine physicians, who also see their own patients here. Additionally, we usually have a primary care HIV fellow getting an additional year of training after residency in HIV and Hepatitis care. Emerald Clinic also houses our pharmacy, which opened summer 2013, billing, scheduling, medical records and ancillary administrative services that are housed just across the waiting room from the clinic space.

Common Questions About Free and Low-Cost Clinics

General guidance for visitors. It is not medical advice and it does not describe Family Medicine Health Center - Emerald Clinic's current policy — call the clinic to confirm anything below.

Is this clinic actually free?
Often not entirely. "Free clinic" usually means one of three things: a volunteer clinic with no charge, a community health center with a sliding fee scale based on household size and income, or a clinic that charges a small flat visit fee. A sliding scale can still leave a bill. Ask what the lowest tier costs before you book.
What if I have no income at all?
Most sliding-scale programs have a lowest tier for people with no income, and many accept a signed self-declaration when you have no pay stubs to show. Ask for the clinic's discount program by name and ask what proof they take. Being told "bring proof of income" does not mean you are turned away for having none.
What should I bring to a first visit?
Usually a photo ID, something showing your address, proof of income or a self-declaration, your insurance or Medicaid card if you have one, and a written list of your current medications and doses. Call ahead — requirements vary, and arriving without the right paperwork is the most common reason a first visit gets rescheduled.
Do I need insurance, or immigration documents?
Federally funded health centers serve patients regardless of insurance status and do not require proof of citizenship to provide care. Volunteer and charitable clinics set their own rules. If it matters to you, ask before your visit what they require and what they record.
Is dental care included?
Usually not, and this is the single most common disappointment. Dental is frequently a separate program with its own eligibility, its own waiting list, and a narrower service list — extractions and urgent pain may be covered while fillings, crowns, root canals, and dentures are not. Confirm that dental is offered at this specific location before travelling.
Can I get a prescription refilled here?
Most clinics require an appointment before they will refill anything, and a first appointment can be weeks out. If you are close to running out of a medication you cannot safely stop, say so when you call — say the medication name and how many days you have left. Ask your pharmacy at the same time; pharmacists can sometimes authorise a short emergency supply.
What if I need care today?
This directory cannot arrange care or pass a message to a clinic. For a medical emergency call 911. For a mental health or suicidal crisis call or text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline). For something urgent but not an emergency, an urgent care clinic or a hospital emergency department must evaluate you regardless of ability to pay.
