Providing High-Quality, Affordable and Effective Care

View Our Services

Christ Health Pediatrics is recognized by the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) as a Patient Centered Medical Home (PCMH). PCMH is a model of healthcare that strengthens the relationship between providers and patients through long-term care from a care team comprised of multiple healthcare providers and led by a physician. PCMH services include same-day and evening appointments, preventive care, school physicals, an online patient portal, and self-care management.

Arrival Time

For new patients, please come 20 minutes early to complete your check-in. We provide a 10-minute grace period for patients arriving late. After the allotted grace period, Christ Health Pediatrics reserves the right to give your appointment to another patient on the standby list.

Patients without Insurance

If you do not have insurance or will need assistance paying for your care, you will also need to bring:

• Payment for your visit (check with the front office to confirm this amount)
• Proof of income

In order to apply for our Medicaid, All Kids First or Sliding Fee Discount Program, you will need to bring proof of income for yourself, your spouse, and any children you could claim on your federal tax return (including any disabled children you support). Proof of income documents include: prior-year W-2 forms, a pay stub from the past four weeks, most recent bank statement, employer letter stating the amount of gross pay, unemployment benefits statement, social security and food stamp benefits statements, Federal tax return, and a food stamp letter that contains income information. For pediatric patients, a Household Application for Free and Reduced Price School Meals form is also acceptable if certified by the school in which the child attends.

When you come to Christ Health Pediatrics for the first time, please bring the following:

• Your photo ID
• Proof of insurance
• Money for co-pay (cash, check, and all major credit cards are accepted)
