Yes, There Are Still Many Uninsured Residents In Delaware!
And the Voluntary Initiative Program (VIP), a charitable program of the Medical Society of Delaware, is at the forefront helping those uninsured people  rate.
VIP is a network of Delaware primary care and specialty physicians who volunteer
to use a reduced fee scale, or at times
no fee, to allow uninsured state residents access to health care. Health Care Connection, the program formerly know  inappropriate utilization of emergency  patients since 2001.
Uninsured Delaware residents qualify if:
 Their income is at or below 200%
Federal Poverty Level,
 They are exempt/ineligible for the ACA
Marketplace, and
 They are ineligible for Medicaid.
A VIP Care Coordinator assigns a primary care provider and also makes referral appointments for specialty services as needed. A VIP Pharmacy Coordinator assists with locating medications at a reduced price or free. This includes access to a free bilingual speaking glucose meter and all diabetes testing supplies can be accessed for $25/ month.
Won’t you consider adding your name to a distinguished list of Delaware physicians who are dedicated to providing exceptional health care opportunities to low income, uninsured residents of Delaware?
