About MiniCare

Barry Michaels

 
As someone who has personally experienced both the best and the worst of life, I realize the need for a low cost health care system. Many Americans today, for one reason or another, do not have health insurance and are unable to qualify for Medicare or Medicaid.

For this reason, I have created MiniCare, a non-profit corporation to establish low fee primary care clinics throughout the nation that will cater to this segment of the population.

Since Las Vegas is my home it seemed appropriate to start the first clinic there. With the help of many physicians, nurse practioners and physician assistants all supervised by Maxine B. Ingham M.D., MiniCare's  medical director, the first clinic should open within the next sixty days.

MiniCare's fees will be set at $22 per office visit and a yearly membership fee of $5 per year will be charged each patient. The clinics will be open seven days a week with no appointment necessary and no insurance will be accepted, only cash or credit card.

Referrals made by our providers will be available to a network of local specialists who have also agreed to  greatly reduce their fees accordingly.

To accomplish these goals MiniCare is filing for public charity status with the IRS and will need to raise funds through public donations. In addition MiniCare will apply for various other programs including; federal, state and institutional grants, employment as well as community redevelopment grants.

Please if you feel as I do and want to help, you can do so by either volunteering or making a donation. Either one will be greatly appreciated by myself and those that MiniCare will serve.
