The District is offering a new health care program for uninsured residents called the DC Healthcare Alliance. As of August 17, 2001, thousands of previously uninsured residents (many of whom used to receive care at DC General) had already enrolled in this new program.

The DC Healthcare Alliance offers a full range of health care services for its members. Benefits include: inpatient hospital care, outpatient medical care (including preventive care), emergency services, urgent care services, prescription drugs, rehabilitative services, home health care, dental services, specialty care, and wellness programs that include mother and baby care.

There are currently eight sites throughout the city where residents may enroll in the new system. Click on of the locations above for details.. For more information about enrolling in the District's new system of health care, call (202) 842-2810 or 1 (866) 842-2810 (toll free).
