Mini clinics

What are mini clinics?

Mini clinics are walk-in clinics that offer an alternative to emergency rooms for common sicknesses like strep throat, bronchitis, cold/flu, minor burns, rashes, and ear, eye, bladder and sinus infections.

Mini clinics are especially convenient when you need to see a doctor during weekend or evening hours. And you don't need an appointment – you can walk right in.

Am I covered when I go to a mini clinic?

Mini clinic services are covered for all FCHP commercial and MassHealth members.  Most members will pay the same copay that they would pay for a regular doctor’s office visit. FCHP MassHealth members don't have to pay a copay when they visit a mini clinic.

FCHP encourages you to first contact your doctor for medical care. If you do visit a mini clinic for care, be sure to follow up with your doctor.
