Beach Health Clinic is a volunteer staffed,
private, non-profit clinic established in 1986 by a group of concerned
physicians. The mission of the clinic is to provide basic medical services
and prescription assistance to the uninsured, working poor families
of Virginia Beach. 53,000 children and adults in our city do not have
health insurance.
Our patients come to Beach Health Clinic from all neighborhoods in the
city and most are employed in service, retail, education and construction
but are not provided health insurance benefits. Some patients are temporarily
uninsured because they are between jobs — many are children whose
parents do not earn health insurance from their employers.
Funding for Beach Health Clinic comes from individual donations, United
Way designations and grants. Because more than 200 doctors, nurses and
lay people donate their time and some donate samples and supplies, the
clinic is able to provide $7 in free medical care and prescription medications
for every $1 spent. Last year the clinic provided more than $2.5million
in free care to 13,000 sick children and adults.
