Healthcare costs and client health status were measured in a 10-month period before and after an index free clinic visit for 26 poor, working, uninsured patients. A significant number of patients reported overall improvement in their health. During the period of free clinic management, the equivalent of dollar 6500 of care was provided. Compared to utilization before the free clinic period, a savings of dollar 33,145 was realized, largely due to decreased emergency department care and hospitalization.
