Oklahoma free and sliding fee health clinics by region and county
Oklahoma has one of the highest uninsured rates in the country, and medical care for people without insurance comes from three main systems - this page covers the options available. Sliding fee community health centers treat everyone and charge based on income. Dozens of volunteer charitable clinics, many run by churches, treat the uninsured for free. Tribal health systems serve members of federally recognized tribes. SoonerCare, the state's Medicaid program, now covers many adults with low income, and most clinics in this guide may help people apply.

We also have a local clinic guide for the two most populated counties in the state. See the two dedicated NHPB guides for localized options.
The rest of this guide names the main organizations in each part of the state. As there are options available in all counties - even some clinics in rural parts of the state. Every region also has smaller church, volunteer run or charitable clinics on the clinic list linked above.

Tribal health systems and the Indian Health Service
Oklahoma has more tribal health facilities than any other state, including hospitals and clinics run by the Choctaw, Chickasaw, Cherokee, and many other nations. These facilities generally serve members of federally recognized tribes, and most require a CDIB card or tribal enrollment card, so they are not open to the general public. Urban Indian clinics in Oklahoma City and Tulsa serve Native Americans in those metros. The Indian Health Service lists every facility in the state at https://www.ihs.gov/oklahomacity/healthcarefacilities/..
County health departments and mobile clinics
Oklahoma runs most county health departments through the state health department, with locations in almost every county. Depending on the county, a health department may offer immunizations, family planning, STI testing, child health checks, and WIC at low or no cost. Find your county office at https://oklahoma.gov/health/locations/countymap.html.
The state also sends mobile wellness trailers and vans to towns across Oklahoma for exams, vaccines, and screenings, with the schedule posted at https://oklahoma.gov/health/news---events/mobile-wellness-units.html.
Other options for free or low-cost care for the uninsured
There are other referral services that may offer options. This is a tool to also look for a sliding fee health center in the state – use the Oklahoma Primary Care Association finder at https://okpca.org/find-a-community-health-center/ or the federal locator at https://findahealthcenter.hrsa.gov.
There are faith based centers too. The association also tries to log every charitable and church clinic – the Oklahoma Charitable Clinics Association keeps a statewide list at https://oklahomacharitableclinics.org/clinics/. In addition, many uninsured Oklahomans now qualify for SoonerCare, and the clinics in this guide may help with the application. SoonerCare and other state programs are covered in the NHPB guide to uninsured assistance programs in Oklahoma.
