HealthNet of Janesville, Inc. opened in 1994
as the result of a needs assessment completed by the Salvation Army in
1993. The assessment identified a lack of affordable health care as one
of the major problems of Rock County. HealthNet of Janesville is a free
clinic serving Rock County individuals who have no health insurance,
Medicare, Medicaid, or Medical Assistance. Individuals must have a
household income of no more than 185% of the federal poverty
guidelines, or $18,130 annually for a single person. HealthNet requires
proof of income to qualify for services.
In fiscal
year 2007-2008, HealthNet increased the number of individuals served by
71% and the number of overall visits increased by 54%
We have
provided over22,000 prescriptions vallued at over $2,000,000.00. Our
new dental clinic has provided over 4,000 procedures, with a value of
over $254,000.00.
In the
coming year, we are challenged by the growth of our clinic and are
faced with the demand to continue to expand. The changes in our
community and economy have increased the need for our services. Our
ability to grow is completely contingent upon community support.
If you
are in a position to help the less fortunate, please donate in support of our mission.
