Cost:
MassHealth Standard and other insurances accepted. We offer sliding-scale services for people who do not have, or can not safely use their health insurance plan to access care. If you are uninsured or can’t use your insurance because of an unsafe situation, we offer reduced-to-no cost services based on income and family size.
No one is denied services because of their inability to pay.
Providing mobile services reduces barriers and increases access to quality medical care. Tapestry’s philosophy of meeting people where they’re at, physically, clinically, and mentally and further reducing stigma is the goal of the mobile health team.
"I couldn't believe the mobile health van just pulled right up and gave me my treatment. It could not have been more convenient."
