Why Your Family Should Choose Flagler Health+

Choosing a health care provider is an important decision—one that can affect the health and quality of life of your entire family.

With so many health care options to choose from, the process of settling on a single provider or practice can be overwhelming.

As a not-for-profit health system with locations throughout St. Johns County and beyond, Flagler Health+ offers a wide network of primary care, specialty care, walk-in and urgent care options to meet your family’s health care needs. Flagler Health+ has been serving the community since 1889 and while we’re not new to the area, we may be new to you. If you’re unfamiliar with Flagler Health+ and all of the ways it supports patients with quality, convenient care, read on for answers to some of your common questions—and to discover the difference of entrusting us with your family’s health.

Does Flagler Health+ Have a Good Local Reputation?

Flagler Health+ is uniquely positioned to meet our growing communities’ health care needs. Since 1889, this strong reputation and high standard of care has resulted in a number of honors and recognitions for our health care system over time.

Flagler Hospital has been distinguished as one of America’s 50 Best Hospitals by Healthgrades in 2022 – placing it in the top 1% of all hospitals in the country for quality and safety, named a Top General Hospital by The Leapfrog Group – widely acknowledged as one of the most competitive awards American hospitals can achieve. Additionally, Flagler Hospital has earned a Gold Seal of Approval from the Joint Commission for primary stroke care centers, and has received accreditations and recognitions for a number of other health care programs, surgery centers and care facilities.

Will Flagler Health+ Accept My Insurance?

Flagler Health+ accepts insurance from a wide range of providers, making our health care services broadly accessible.

Our contracted provider listing can offer more information about the types of insurance coverage we currently support.

If your insurance provider is not listed on our directory of providers, you can also contact us directly to see if your insurance is accepted by our health care system. One of our representatives can offer additional information, as well as assistance and support to help connect you to whatever services you need.

Can I Find Doctors Near Me Who Can Provide Specialized Care?

One of the benefits of Flagler Health+ is our ability to connect you to specialized care. Our facilities and providers range from primary care and family medicine to specialized centers dedicated to treating cancer orthopaedics, cardiac care and a number of other specialized conditions.

As a patient within the Flagler Health+ system, this vast network makes it easier to receive timely access to the specialized health care you or your family members need.

What is the Location of Hospitals Near Me?

Whether it comes to your primary care practice, your general hospital or the nearest emergency room or urgent care, proximity can make a difference in the quality and speed of the health care services you receive. With facilities located throughout St. Johns County—including urgent care clinics, walk-in care at Publix locations, and Flagler Health’s Emergency Care Center—patients of Flagler Health+ can have confidence in their ability to quickly visit a health care location if the need arises.

Increased convenience will inevitably reduce some of the barriers that may prevent you from seeking out quality health care. Our directory of locations can help you identify Flagler Health facilities in proximity to your home address.

How Easy is it to Schedule Appointments and Access My Health Information?

Scheduling appointments and accessing your own medical records are an important part of receiving care and support from your health care provider. We are committed to providing maximum availability for all of your family’s health care services.

The Health Anywhere app provides an easy-to-use portal where scheduling, medical records and other administrative services can all be accessed and managed at your convenience.

What Other Supportive Resources Does Flagler Health+ Offer?

Your family’s health is about more than its medical care needs. Through Care Connect+, a program of Flagler Health+, we offer a wide range of physical, mental and social support services to fulfill our mission of excellent community-based care.

We understand the connection between physical health and the social and environmental factors that can affect an individual’s well-being. There are many programs in the community to assist with inadequate housing, food insecurity, unemployment and mental health concerns – it’s just a matter of connecting with us at Care Connect+ to get started. We know the process can be difficult to navigate, and our role is to close this gap so we can support you through all of life’s issues, including the challenges and the good times.
