Services Provided Through Physicians Reach Out
The Mecklenburg County
Medical Society has developed
Physicians Reach Out (PRO), a non-profit program that provides health
care access to low income, uninsured residents of Mecklenburg County.
These services are provided by more than 1,000 physicians, both hospital
systems and other health care service providers. Physicians Reach Out
is not an insurance plan. Physicians Reach Out offers free or discounted
health services donated by its participating physicians, partners and
other providers.
The operation of PRO is supported financially through the generous help
of various organizations and is also made possible through its many collaborative
partners and in-kind contributors.
Patients enrolled with
PRO can receive many of their prescription medications free of charge
through MedAssist of Mecklenburg, a nonprofit community pharmacy.
Currently PRO providers do NOT offer the following services:
- Pregnancy care and deliveries
- Cosmetic care and elective cosmetic surgery
- Services provided outside of Mecklenburg County
