Post: Introducing the Lifeline Health Plan

The Lifeline Health Plan is an affordable medical option designed for uninsured patients who struggle to qualify for standard health insurance. For more information, contact us or request an appointment online. We have convenient locations to serve you in Lilburn Main, Lilburn Extension, Lilburn – Snellville, Norcross, Sandy Springs, Stone Mountain, Duluth, Clarkston, and Suwanee GA.

What is the Lifeline Health Plan?

The Lifeline Health Plan is a low-cost medical plan aimed at uninsured patients who have difficulty qualifying for affordable health insurance. The plan should NOT replace health insurance.

Why Are We Doing This?

We believe quality health care should be affordable for everyone. With this health plan, our patients would be able to afford the quality health care they deserve at a fraction of the cost.

Who Can Enroll?

This is ONLY for uninsured patients.
