Reach Out: Transforming Lives Through Compassionate Healthcare

Since its inception in 1994, Reach Out, a 501(c)(3) volunteer healthcare organization, has been a beacon of hope for the underserved and uninsured in Montgomery County. Founded by visionary leaders from Wright State University Boonshoft School of Medicine, Public Health–Dayton and Montgomery County, and the Montgomery County Medical Society, Reach Out is driven by a powerful mission to deliver accessible, high-quality healthcare to those who need it most.

Our Mission: Healthcare Without Barriers

At Reach Out, we believe that everyone deserves access to essential healthcare, regardless of their financial circumstances. Our dedicated team of volunteer physicians, nurses, and healthcare professionals works tirelessly to provide free medical services to the uninsured and underserved, ensuring that no one is left behind. With compassion and expertise, we break down barriers to care, offering hope and healing to our community.

Who We Serve

Reach Out opens its doors to individuals of all ages and health conditions who are uninsured and have an income at or below 200% of the federal poverty level. To register at our clinic, a simple form of identification is required, with a photo ID (such as a driver’s license or state ID) preferred. We strive to make the process straightforward, so you can focus on what matters most—your health.

Comprehensive, No-Cost Services

Reach Out serves as a vital safety net for those facing acute or chronic health challenges. Our services include:

• In-Person and Telemedicine Appointments: Connect with skilled physicians for personalized care, whether in our clinic or from the comfort of your home.

• Laboratory Testing: Access a wide range of diagnostic tests at no cost, ensuring timely and accurate medical evaluations.

• Specialist Referrals: Through our network of compassionate specialists, we facilitate access to advanced care. While professional fees are often waived, patients may be responsible for costs related to tests or procedures, with Reach Out coordinating most appointment scheduling for your convenience.

• Limited Ancillary Services: Pharmacy and imaging services, such as X-rays, are available based on current resources and partnerships.

Our commitment is to provide immediate, high-quality care to those who need it most, without the burden of financial strain.
