Every year, Mile Bluff Medical Center in Mauston provides traditional charity care to hundreds of patients, forgiving hundreds of thousands of dollars in medical bills. Not only does Mile Bluff offer help in big ways like this, it also assists with the ‘small,’ every-day things.
 
Recognizing that the fear of cost can often lead people to put off receiving routine, preventative care, Mile Bluff hosts monthly events to give area residents access to free, discounted, life-saving health screenings. The health fairs are offered in various locations throughout the year, and many Mile Bluff providers suggest the events to their patients as a cost-effective option for diagnosing and monitoring medical conditions.
 
Those who attend the health fairs can receive free blood pressure checks, blood sugar screenings, risk factor health reports, and hearing tests. Cholesterol testing is also available for a low out-of-pocket price of just $20. 
 
All of these services help to equip area residents with information that helps them have a positive impact on their wellness, ultimately leading to an overall healthier community
