Health Right has long-established partnerships with WVU Hospitals, Monongalia Health System, Mylan Pharmaceuticals Inc., University Health Associates, West Virginia University, and physicians and dentists in private practice who provide specialty care without cost to qualified Health Right patients.

Health professionals from a wide array of disciplines volunteer countless hours of quality medical care for our patients. WVU medical students learn to work with patients in our clinics.
