Moab Free Health Clinic

What Moab Free Health Clinic does

Moab Free Health Clinic (MFHC) is a nonprofit free health clinic founded in 2008 and headquartered at 121 W 200 S, Suite A, Moab, Utah. It provides free primary medical care, vision care, and community resource navigation to uninsured residents, underinsured residents with high-deductible health plans, and individuals at or below 200% of the Federal Poverty Level. The clinic operates primarily with volunteer medical providers, with 60 individual volunteers contributing 320 hours in 2025 (290 clinical hours and 30 translation hours). All volunteers are covered under the Federal Tort Claims Act (FTCA), which provides federal liability protection for medical and non-medical volunteers.

MFHC's core products include general clinic services, three annual volunteer-staffed Vision Clinics that delivered 370+ appointments in 2025, bilingual (English and Spanish) Community Resource Guides, and an online Community Resource Directory connecting residents to local non-profits, health services, and social services. The clinic runs on a donation-based revenue model — no fees are charged to patients — funded through community donations, foundation grants, and in-kind support from partners including Americares, Direct Relief, Intermountain Healthcare, Rocky Mountain Power Foundation, Eccles Foundation, Sorenson Legacy Foundation, and the Moab Health Care Foundation. There is no proprietary technology platform; operations are supported by a standard Squarespace-hosted website.

MFHC is the hub of the Moab Community Resource Campus, a co-located initiative with 10+ partner organizations spanning housing (Moab Area Community Land Trust), education (Arches Education Center), disability services (Active Re-Entry), nursing (Community Nursing Services), mental health and substance abuse support, and other social services. The clinic is solar-powered and serves a defined rural catchment in Grand County, Utah. As a nonprofit free clinic, MFHC does not generate revenue from patient services and does not disclose financial statements publicly.

Scale indicators4 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights4 records

Broad incumbents

• Community Health Center, Inc. Federally Qualified Health Center delivering primary care to underserved populations on a sliding-fee basis. Comparable patient population and primary-care delivery to MFHC, but operates at substantially greater scale with federal funding.
• Intermountain Healthcare: Large regional health system and existing MFHC partner. Operates in the same geographic market and increasingly offers rural outreach and sliding-scale programs that overlap with MFHC's patient pool.
• Doctors Without Borders / Médecins Sans Frontières: Global medical humanitarian organization delivering care in resource-limited settings. Comparable mission and volunteer-driven delivery model, though at vastly greater scale and with international focus rather than U.S. rural.

Direct peers

• Remote Area Medical: Volunteer-driven nonprofit delivering free medical, dental, and vision care through pop-up clinics across rural America. Highly comparable to MFHC's free, volunteer-staffed, episodic-care model, with a much larger geographic footprint.
• Volunteers in Medicine: National nonprofit network of free clinics relying on retired and volunteer medical professionals to serve uninsured patients. Closely aligned with MFHC's volunteer-clinic model, liability framework, and target population.
• The Health Wagon: Free clinic serving rural Appalachia via mobile and fixed-site delivery with volunteer providers. Directly comparable to MFHC in mission, rural geography, and reliance on donated clinician time and community grants.

Others

• Americares: Global health-focused nonprofit that supplies free medications and supplies to U.S. free clinics including MFHC. Relevant as a supply-chain peer and an existing partner, not a direct service competitor.
• Direct Relief: Medical aid organization providing pharmaceuticals and supplies to free and charitable clinics nationwide. Listed as an MFHC partner; comparable as a funder/supplier peer within the free-clinic ecosystem.
• National Association of Free & Charitable Clinics: Industry association representing 1,400+ free and charitable clinics in the U.S. MFHC operates in this same ecosystem and would map to NAFC's member profile; relevant as a peer via shared operating model rather than as a competitor.

Regional players

• Mountainlands Community Health Center: Utah-based FQHC serving low-income and uninsured patients in rural eastern Utah. Operates in overlapping geography and serves the same target population as MFHC, with broader services and federal funding.
