Notes:

The Eric B. Chandler Health Center is a federally funded community health center that is owned and operated by the UMDNJ Robert Wood Johnson Medical School in collaboration with a community board. Last year, the Chandler Health Center provided over 36,000 patient encounters to a diverse, multicultural, largely indigent patient population. Approximately 52 percent of patients seen in the center are uninsured, with another 43 percent being covered by Medicaid. Acute and chronic care is provided to patients of all ages by faculty, residents, and students from the Robert Wood Johnson Medical School. Residents in pediatrics, internal medicine, family practice, and ob/gyn have longitudinal training experiences at the center. Each year over 50 primary care residents and 40 to 50 medical students rotate in the center. Other services provided at Chandler include: laboratory services, podiatry, acute and preventive dental care, nutritional counseling, social services, and an HIV/AIDS clinic.

The Chandler Health Center provides access to high quality primary medical and dental care to the uninsured in the greater New Brunswick community. The center offers a sliding fee scale so that patients who are unable to afford care in the private sector can access a wide range of services for one nominal fee. Additionally, indigent patients are assisted by social workers from the Center in applying for the medication assistance programs offered by various pharmaceutical companies. Uninsured patients can access specialty care from medical school faculty when referred by Chandler providers.
