Providing care for uninsured families ...
AFFORDABLE CARE ACT & THE CFC
Minding the Gap in Coverage
Many people assume that with the enactment of the Affordable Care
Act all uninsured (Clearwater Free Clinic patients), are covered with
affordable options. Some may possibly think that there will not be a
need for Clinic services in the future… the fact is… this is simply not the
case…not at all!
building healthy communities
Right now in Florida, most low income adults fall into a
“coverage gap” - unable to get coverage under Florida’s
current limited Medicaid program or to get help paying for
insurance in the new Marketplace
Are you a U.S. citizen between the ages of 19 and 64?
Is your income below $1,321/month for an individual or $1,784/month
for a family of two? (add $462 for each household member)
The truth is, even with the role out of the ACA, the Clearwater Free Clinic
has not experienced any changes in either the number of new patients
seeking medical care or the decline in existing patients. The Clinic
continues to average 75 new patients per month.
Example: Anyone, whose salary is below $1,321.00 per month for an
individual or $1,784 per month for a family of two falls into the doughnut
shortfall or coverage gap…no access to coverage or affordable care…
except at the Clearwater Free Clinic
Are you uninsured?
CURRENT MEDICAID
COVERAGE IN FLORIDA
“It is a myth that the Affordable Care Act provides universal coverage.
In fact, there is still a growing need for Free Clinics like the CFC,” says
Mark Cruise, interim Executive Director of the Florida Association of Free
and Charitable Clinics.
Very poor parents
As the Affordable Care Act takes effect, the demand for Clinic services
most likely will not diminish but possibly increase. The Clearwater Free
Clinic will continue to rely on the support of our generous community.
Together we will build a healthier community.

CFC SUCCESS STORY
Getting Healthy and Getting
Back to Work
Tracy moved to Tampa Bay when he was 6
years old and has called this area home ever
since. A little over two years ago, Tracy was
supporting his family as an assistant produce
manager at a local Publix Super Market
when his health took a major downward
turn. He suffered a heart attack and was also diagnosed with a seizure
disorder. Tracy’s health issues forced him to leave the job he had held
for 30 years and required his wife to become the family’s bread winner.
Unfortunately, with the loss of his job came the loss of their family’s
health insurance.
Tracy’s wife’s salary wasn’t enough to allow for private health insurance
but too much to allow for government assistance like County Social

Services or Medicaid. In and out of the hospital and desperate for some
sort of help Tracy found the Clearwater Free Clinic. He was able to
register as a patient and be seen by a doctor the same day. The CFC
has provided Tracy with services, referrals and medications he otherwise
could not afford. “My medication bill alone would cost us $2,500 a
month and there is no way I could afford that.”
Thanks to the CFC, Tracy was able to start working again this past
August. His health insurance will soon take effect and he will no longer
need the services of the Clinic. “The CFC has become like family to me.
I don’t know everyone’s name but I know their smiles and their warm
greetings. Everyone is so willing to help and no one treats me like I
am just a poor person.” He and his wife celebrated their 18th wedding
anniversary in January.
There are countless patients that aren’t able to afford care on their own
but don’t qualify for Medicaid or county services and otherwise would
be in and out of the hospital, unable to work because of their health.
Success stories like Tracy’s are what make the Clearwater Free Clinic a
vital part of our community.

Dear Valued Supporters of the Clearwater Free Clinic,
Well, 2014 is upon us and boy have we hit the ground runnin
g! I cannot think of a better
way to start the year than “Martinis & Matisse”. As they
say, “It takes a community to raise
a child”. This is certainly true in the support of the Clearw
ater Free Clinic. It is absolutely
amazing the amount of Community support shown in making
“Martinis & Matisse” one of the
most prolific fundraisers in Tampa Bay.
THANK YOU… to all our artists, restaurants, sponsors,
Frank & Brenda Crum, and last
but not least our awesome committee & volunteers for making
this event a success. With
your support, this event raised close to 25% of our Opera
ting Budget. Our patients will be
the beneficiaries of your generous support….
The support for the Clearwater Free Clinic does not end
with “Martinis & Matisse”. Our community supports our
efforts all year long.
We are so thankful for Morton Plant Hospital, our volunte
er physicians, our administrative volunteers, our staff, and
last but not least our
donors. Without everyone’s support we would not be able
to provide caring, compassionate healthcare to those in
need. On behalf of
everyone associated with the Clearwater Free Clinic…THAN
K YOU ALL!
As the need for our programs increase, we need to be a
more efficient organization to handle this demand withou
t sacrificing quality.
In an effort to “Up our Game” as an organization, the Board
of Directors of the Clearwater Free Clinic have worked very
hard in establishing
a long-range Strategic Plan looking into the future of healthc
are needs in our community. Mental Health, Diabetes treatm
ent, Obesity, and
Smoking Cessation are just a few areas we intend to focus
our efforts.
In addition, our board has just implemented new “Ends”
based Governance Policies that have shifted our efforts
from a “Top Down” to
a “Results Up” approach. This shift in direction will enable
us as an organization to focus on an “Ends/Results” orienta
tion, in which making
a difference in the health of our community is our primar
y focus. In addition, measureable metrics will be in place
to monitor our ongoing
programs as to their success and long-term effect in our
patients’ lives.
The future is bright, yet challenging for the Clearwater Free
Clinic. With the uncertainty of healthcare affordability and
availability,
the need for our services has been unaffected by the new
ACA. Coverage gaps, complex eligibility requirements,
and even affordability
questions make healthcare for our patients difficult at best.
One thing is certain, any qualified patient that is treated
at the Clearwater Free Clinic will be treated with dignity,
compassion and
professionalism.
The healthcare battle is long and expensive. WE NEED
YOUR HELP. When making your plans to volunteer or
donate to an
organization, please consider the Clearwater Free Clinic.
It is only through your help and support that we can sustain
our mission today
and in the future.
Sincerely,
Bruce Livingston
CFC Board President

VOLUNTEER NEWS
VOLUNTEER SPOTLIGHT –
SUSAN MURBACH
Susan Murbach is caring, compassionate, dedicated, enthusiastic and one of the amazing Clearwater Free
Clinic volunteers.
A registered nurse, Susan began volunteering at the Clinic 15 years ago when her children were in school and
she wanted to use her nursing degree to help. “I really like volunteering at the Clinic. It keeps me connected to
the community. When I’m volunteering, it’s easy to see the positive impact of the Clinic and why it is needed.
Seeing people benefit from our services is what keeps me coming back,” Susan says.
Susan not only volunteers at the clinic, she serves on the board of directors and has chaired Martinis & Matisse
for the past 3 years. Six months of the year, Susan spends her time planning and organizing the Clinic’s
signature fundraising event, which is responsible for a significant portion of the operating budget. From
coordinating artists, soliciting sponsors to heading up a large committee, she has done it all and is always happy
to step up and do more. “I love being part of Martinis and Matisse.”
It’s gratifying to know that I have a job that is meaningful and directly supports the Clinic’s programs. The Clinic
helps hard working people who are unable to afford health insurance maintain their health and keep their jobs.
Volunteering there has become a part of my life and gives me purpose.”
The Clearwater Free Clinic is sincerely grateful to Susan and our many wonderful volunteers who continue to
generously contribute a wide variety of talent and skills. The combined hours of our volunteer professionals,
fundraising committees and board members help ensure the Clinic is able to continue service to the community.
“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful
committed citizens can change the world;
indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.”
– Margaret Mead
The volunteers of the Clearwater Free Clinic are truly the heart of
our organization. Without their kind hearts and assistance, the Clinic
could not function.
At the Clinic’s annual volunteer luncheon, these wonderful
people are recognized and celebrated for their extraordinary
accomplishments. Is it one of the ways the CFC board and staff
are able to demonstrate how much the volunteers are valued and
appreciated for their service to the uninsured families living in our
community.

PARTY WITH A PURPOSE!
There are easy and fun ways for everyone to be chartable. Planning a fundraiser for the CFC will promote
good health for our community and be a great opportunity to spend time with your friends, neighbors and
colleagues. Here are some simple ideas for fundraisers that you can host:
• Yard Sale: Clean out your closets!
• Car Wash: Set up shop at the local gas station or
school.
• Spinning Class: Harness the energy of your spinning
class. Set a goal at the beginning of the class and if it’s
met, everyone donates $1 per mile – or $1 per minute
• Lemonade Stand: Great for parents and kids to
organize together, especially in the hot summer
• Bake Sale: Get the neighborhood or office together for
some sweet treats for good.
• Birthday Party: In lieu of birthday gifts encourage a
charitable donation.
• Potluck Giving Circle Dinner: Guests bring a dish
and donate what they would have spent dining out.
• Dinner Out: Ask your favorite restaurant to donate
a % of a night’s proceeds, and pack it full of your
friends!
• Dress Down Friday: Ask your boss if you can host
a “Clearwater Free Clinic Dress Down Friday”.
Employees pay a small fee to dress down on an
assigned day.
• Hair Salon: Ask your salon to hosts a hair cut-a-thon.
Two hours of haircutting will raise more donations can
imagine – be sure to get the word out!
No donation is too small…For every $1.00 donated, the
CFC is able to provide $5.00 worth of services.
