Lincoln Health Center Closing Information
On January 26, 2008 our Lincoln health center will close. Appointments for services are no longer available but birth control and supplies can be picked up through Friday, January 25.
The choice to close this health center was extremely difficult and we considered all possible alternatives before coming to a final decision. Ultimately, the Logan County Health Department was unable to make accommodations that would allow us to continue providing services at this location.
We have made arrangements to make it as easy as possible for you to continue receiving the service and care you expect from Planned Parenthood. All patient medical records, prescriptions, and billing information have been transferred to our Bloomington health center, 318 W. Washington in Bloomington. Important information about getting services, birth control and more is included below. The Bloomington staff and health center manager are also available to answer your questions and assist you during this transition. They can be reached at (309) 827-4014.
