Fees and Payment
UnityPoint Health offers financial assistance to many people who have health care needs and are not able to pay for care. UnityPoint Health does not want a person's ability to pay their bill to stop them from getting care.
Total income of the people living in the home is used to determine if you will get assistance. If this income is below 200% of the Federal Poverty Level (FPL), you will not have to pay your hospital bill. Incomes between 200 and 600% of the FPL guidelines will not pay more than the amounts generally billed to individuals who have insurance, and may be eligible for additional discounts. If you have a lot of assets, you may not get financial assistance.
This is a non profit agency.
Services Offered To: Adults Teens Children

Qualifying for assistance from Iowa's program usually depends on the severity of your condition and financial circumstance. Read our full guide to Iowa's program.
A community counseling agency is a group therapy practice that offers affordable mental health services. Most are independent non-profit agencies, state agencies, or publicly-funded agencies. A few may restrict who is eligible for services, so it is a good idea to check when you call.
Community counseling agencies are generally more affordable than other therapy providers, but how much more affordable they are will depend on whether you qualify for a discount or sliding scale fee (or if they accept your insurance). Many, but not all, have a policy that they won't turn away anyone due to inability to pay. You should ask about their fees when you first call.
Expect to talk to kind people who want to help you find the care you need. Most community agencies strive to connect you with a live person within 24 hours, if not immediately. If you're asked to hold or leave a message, don't give up; just leave a message and wait. You should hear back pretty quickly.
Most agencies try to set up an initial assessment appointment within a week (some do within 24 hours), though the waitlist to start therapy is usually longer—about a few weeks on average. If you're not eligible or if the agency is not right for you, it's usually still worth it to call or drop in, because staff are knowledgeable about local options and can often refer you to one.
