About this service
The Provider Finder helps you find a Community Health Center in Indiana for the care you need, close to where you are.
It is provided by the Indiana Primary Health Care Association (IPHCA), the membership association for Community Health Centers in Indiana. You can find out more about IPHCA and its work at indianapca.org.
How to use it
- Choose the kind of care you need – medical, dental, behavioral health, and so on.
- Tell it where you are – share your location, or type a town or ZIP code. You can also pick a town from the list on the home page.
- Look through the results – each one shows how far away it is, whether it is open, and what services it offers. Filter to open now, accepting new patients, or a particular service.
- Get in touch – call the health center directly, or open its page for full opening hours, address and directions.
Frequently asked questions
What is a Community Health Center?
Community Health Centers are local, non-profit health centers that provide primary care to everyone in their community. Many offer medical, dental, behavioral health and pharmacy services under one roof, and most accept Medicaid, Medicare and private insurance.
Do I need insurance to be seen?
No. Community Health Centers see patients whether or not they have insurance. If you are uninsured, ask the health center about their sliding fee scale when you call.
How much will it cost?
It depends on your income and household size. Health centers use a sliding fee scale, which means the amount you pay is based on what you can afford. The health center will explain this when you contact them.
How do I use the finder?
Choose the kind of care you need, then either share your location or type your town or ZIP code. You will get a list of the closest health centers, with distances, opening hours and phone numbers, and a map showing where each one is.
Can I narrow the results down?
Yes. Once you have results you can filter to health centers that are open now, that are accepting new patients, or that offer a particular service. You can also change how far out the search looks.
There is nothing near me. What now?
Try widening the distance, or removing any filters you have applied. If the nearest health center is still a long way off, the results page will tell you how far rather than leaving you guessing.
How up to date is this information?
Details come from IPHCA and are updated regularly. Opening hours in particular can change at short notice, so it is always worth phoning ahead before travelling.
Something here looks wrong.
Please tell us so we can correct it. Contact details are on the IPHCA website.
What happens to my location?
If you choose to share your location it is used in your browser to work out which health centers are closest, and it is not sent anywhere or stored. You can search by town or ZIP code instead at any time.
What if I need urgent help?
This service is for finding routine and ongoing care. If you have a medical emergency, call 911.
