Located in Newton, KS, Health Ministries Clinic is a high-functioning Community Health Center (FQHC) that seeks to promote and improve the quality of life by providing integrated healthcare services accessible to everyone in the communities we serve. We have a robust payor mix that reflects our community as a whole and maintain a commitment to serve all patients regardless of their ability to pay. We operate three main clinical service lines: Medical, Behavioral Health, and Dental. We also offer an extensive array of in-house ancillary clinical services such as Pharmacy, Lab, and Diagnostic Imaging (CT, X-ray, Dexa) not typically found in most outpatient clinic settings. Additional assistive services include transportation, on-site Spanish interpreting, case managers, care coordinators, diabetic education, and patient ambassadors. Our close-knit, compassionate team collaborates to deliver high-quality healthcare to our patients.
Our Midwest location boosts the best of two worlds, allowing you to enjoy rural and metropolitan living. We are located 20 minutes from a national airport and have several public schools, private schools, and nearby colleges and universities. We have four true seasons. Our central location allows accessible travel opportunities no matter where you want to go. With an overall cost of living 11% lower than the national average and housing 32% lower than the national average, this is a very livable (and we think great) part of the country.
