Adena Health System recently unveiled its new mobile clinic for school-based health, which will begin once the school year starts. The clinic will travel to partner school districts each month to assist with any medical emergencies that may arise, provide help to students in managing chronic health conditions, and offer other services to students in busy families who may otherwise have difficulty finding time to get to medical appointments.
The mobile clinic contains a pair of exam rooms and other amenities staffed by Adena Health providers who have volunteered to offer students a wide range of primary care services in a safe, clinical environment.
Billing will be submitted through the family’s insurance like a normal office visit, with help made available to connect families with financial assistance personnel if they have gaps in insurance or no insurance at all.
