The Center for Oral Health targets patients who are uninsured, on Medicaid, or enrolled in New Yorks Child Health Plus and Family Health Plus programs, a population that is underserved for dental services in the Broome County area. Lourdes also offers a Patient Financial Assistance Program to help patients who meet specific guidelines and are not eligible for any other available program. The Center for Oral Health is conveniently located on Front Street next door to the Broome County Health Department. Our facility, which is on the BC Transit bus line, is a street-level building which provides easy access for our patients in wheelchairs or with disabilities.
