While many know Compassion Center as the oldest federally-recognized medical cannabis clinic system in the U.S., we are much more than that. As a full-service clinic, we offer a broad range of integrative, holistic, conventional, and allopathic care options, along with mental health support, patient advocacy, and peer-support programs—all tailored to meet each patient’s unique needs, wherever they are in their health journey.
Part of our core mission is to promote wellness and empower patients, moving beyond traditional disease management to support a more holistic path to health, and this division helps make that a reality for all.
As part of this commitment, Compassion Center provides access to essential exams and, when needed, referrals to affordable and accessible functional medicine experts, endocannabinologists, audiologists, prosthetists, and more. Your health is our highest priority, and we are honored to serve you through our national network of dedicated, and highly skilled providers. Founded by patients, for patients, the Compassion Center leads the logical path for health, mental health and social services because everyone can benefit from living a happier, healthier lifestyle.
Through our Sponsorship & Financial Assistance Programs, we aim to make these essential resources available to everyone, regardless of financial circumstances. Whether it’s providing hearing aids, prosthetics, prescription glasses, or financial support for plant-based therapies, we’re here to ensure that everyone has the support they need to thrive. Thank you for choosing Compassion Center and joining us on a journey to a healthier, more inclusive future.
At the Compassion Center, we believe that no one should ever have to forgo essential healthcare services and support due to financial limitations. Our Sponsorship & Financial Assistance Programs are designed to bridge critical gaps in access, providing underserved populations with vital devices, therapies, and resources that improve quality of life. By collaborating with local providers, manufacturers, and community partners, we make a tangible difference for individuals who may otherwise be unable to afford critical healthcare tools and treatments.
Through our sponsorship programs, Compassion Center helps individuals access a range of essential medical devices and assistive technologies. We work with local healthcare providers, device manufacturers, and sponsors to supply and support these resources at low or no cost to qualifying patients, offering a pathway to independence and enhanced well-being.
Hearing Aids and Audiology Services
Hearing loss can impact nearly every aspect of a person’s life, from communication to mental well-being. At the Compassion Center, we provide access to high-quality hearing aids, as well as support for fitting and adjustments, ensuring that individuals who may be overlooked by traditional healthcare avenues receive the care they need.
Orthotics and Prosthetics
For individuals with physical disabilities or injuries, mobility is essential to daily life and well-being. Our program offers orthotic and prosthetic devices, customized to meet each individual’s needs. By covering these devices through sponsorship, we remove financial barriers that often limit access to these critical tools.
Pacemakers and Cardiac Support Devices
Heart health is foundational to overall wellness, yet financial constraints can make cardiac care out of reach for many. Compassion Center partners with manufacturers and healthcare providers to supply pacemakers and other cardiac devices, supporting patients with life-saving technology that’s crucial to their health and longevity.
Dental Prosthetics
A healthy smile is just as essential to optimal healthcare as hearing is, so Compassion Center works with local dentists and orthodontists, and dental manufacturers to create pathways for care. While Compassion Center does not provide dental services directly, we work with a National network of dental professionals to deliver program and may even work with the dentist that you currently work with in your community.
Prescription Glasses
Clear vision is fundamental to quality of life, yet it’s often overlooked in underserved populations. Our sponsorship program provides prescription glasses for individuals who need them, supporting improved vision and daily functioning.
Compassion Center’s sponsorship programs are made possible through partnerships with local physicians, specialists, and device manufacturers. By working closely with healthcare providers and suppliers, we ensure that each sponsored device is not only high-quality but also backed by local support for adjustment, repairs and maintenance, and backed by warranty.
Our relationships with community partners allow us to offer durable medical equipment and devices through an innovative sponsorship model, rather than relying on insurance or out-of-pocket expenses. This approach not only simplifies access for patients but also makes a wider range of devices available to those who need them most.
Beyond assistive devices, the Compassion Center offers financial assistance programs to support access to integrative treatments and specialized therapies that may not be covered by traditional insurance. These programs include:
Subsidized Therapy Access
Compassion Center believes in the therapeutic potential of both modern revolutionary and plant-based medicines. For patients facing financial hardship, we offer subsidies to cover part or all of the costs associated with obtaining those treatments, ensuring that no one is excluded from obtaining access to care based on financial limitations.
Support for Functional Medicine and Mental Health Services
Integrative care often requires a multifaceted approach, including functional medicine, mental health services, and lifestyle support. Compassion Center provides financial assistance, scholarships and grants to help patients access these services, promoting a holistic approach to wellness that includes mental, emotional, and physical health.
Sliding Scale Payment Options
For qualifying patients, Compassion Center offers sliding scale payment options for a wide range of services, from audiology to mental health care and everything in between. This flexible approach makes it possible for individuals to receive the comprehensive care they need without undue financial stress.
Through the Compassion Center’s Sponsorship & Financial Assistance Programs, individuals gain access to life-changing resources that support their independence, wellness, and quality of life. Our programs have a direct, positive impact on the communities we serve, helping individuals live healthier, more fulfilling lives. Each sponsored device or subsidized treatment represents a step toward a more inclusive healthcare system that values every person’s well-being.
By removing financial barriers, we create opportunities for those who may otherwise face limitations in their healthcare journey. Whether it’s the gift of hearing, the gift of dignity with a new smile, the mobility of a prosthetic, or the stability of cardiac support, our programs provide essential care with dignity and respect.
