The Martin County Health Department is now offering Well Child Services through the EPSDT (Early and Periodic Screening, Diagnosis and Treatment) program.

This free healthcare program is designed for children and teens under the age of 21 who are enrolled in Medicaid.

Services include regular checkups, immunizations, vision and dental screenings, developmental evaluations, and referrals for additional care when needed.

Families are encouraged to make use of these essential services to ensure their child’s health and development stay on track.

For more information, call 606-298-7752 or visit the Martin County Health Department at 132 Rockcastle Road in Inez.

Join us at the Back to School Bash on July 31 from 6–8 p.m. Our team will be set up handing out goodies.

Dorothy Dillon is the Health Program Development and Outreach Manager at the Martin County Health Department.
