City of Statesboro seal
Statesboro City Council unanimously approved Tuesday a free health clinic for city employees, with the intent of promoting wellness and providing significant costs savings for patients and the city alike. Rather than paying charges associated with each and every employee visit to a healthcare provider, the city will pair with TransformHealthRx to provide a location where the city’s insured can receive free primary care.According staff, by contracting TransformHealthRx to provide the on-site clinic — located on Merchants Way — the city could drastically cut yearly healthcare expenses. “The city will pay about $14,000 monthly for the clinic,” said Jeff Grant, Director of Human Resources.
