ACHES & PAINS Healthcare Voucher Program

ACHES and PAINS healthcare vouchers can help Grand County residents get the care they need, close to home. Depending on your insurance status and income level, vouchers can cover costs of some doctor visits, mental health visits, and prescriptions, plus well-child exams for children and acute or preventative dental visits for children and pregnant women. Supportive service vouchers are also available, to support needs such as gas or hotel stays for health appointments. 

For Jackson County residents, children and pregnant women may be eligible for dental vouchers, and children and families may be eligible for vouchers covering mental health visits. Certain income, insurance, and residency requirements apply.

How to Apply: 

Voucher program enrollment packets are available at most Grand County medical, dental, and mental health providers, who can pre-screen you to see if you qualify. Enrollment packets must be completed before your appointment. Certain income limits, insurance and residency requirements apply.

Once your enrollment packet is complete, your provider will request a voucher for your appointment(s). Your provider will send your bill directly to the Grand County Rural Health Network for payment.
