Health Funding Opportunities
Eligibility differs for each of the programs listed below. We hope to have a program available for anyone requiring assistance funding their health care needs. All programs require an application and approval process prior to the date of service, therefore we encourage anyone to review listed information or call our Health Funding Office to have your situation reviewed for assistance. The following are some basic eligibility program guidelines:

Contract Health
Open to Enrolled Forest County Potawatomi members and their minor (dependent) children who are under the age of 19, living in either Forest, Marinette or Oconto counties. Services under this program must be referred from the FCPHWC for payment consideration. Clients may have other insurance coverage.

Medical Relief Block Grant
Open to Enrolled Forest County Potawatomi members and their minor (dependent) children who are under the age of 19, living in Wisconsin and receiving services at the FCPHWC. Recipients of Wisconsin Medical Assistance are not eligible for this program.  

Family Assistance Plan
This program is designed for low income uninsured clients receiving services at FCPHWC. The program is based on up to 200% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines set each year by the federal government. Clients can not be eligible for any state or federal program assistance to qualify. On line state-applications can be completed at the following site: http://dhs.wisconsin.gov/badgercareplus/

Drug Assistance Program
Designed to ensure that low income, uninsured clients receiving care at the FCPHWC obtain routine medications at little or no cost. The Health Funding Office will work with you and your provider to identify your specific needs. Individuals not utilizing FCPHWC services may still get benefits by going to various websites and obtaining applications and work directly with your provider to obtain low cost medications.
