Community Resources
We’ve put together a list of health resources and supportive services for all 34 eastern North Carolina counties in the Access East service area. We’ve broken things down by types of service, since organizing everything by individual counties would produce a massive, difficult-to-navigate list.
Please note that while we strive to keep this information current, community resources change regularly, so you may encounter something out-of-date here. If so, we’d be grateful if you’d let us know so we can correct the listed information as quickly as possible, for everyone’s benefit; please drop us a note through our Contact Form, or email to info-accesseast@accesseast.org, with COMMUNITY RESOURCES in the subject line.

Community Health Centers
Specifically, we mean what are known as federally qualified health centers, or FQHCs. These community-based regional clinics provide patient-centered healthcare that brings together high quality medical, dental, behavioral health, pharmacy, and supportive services, without regard to a person’s ability to pay. There are a number of them in our 34-county coverage area, often with multiples per county, though they are not found in all 34 counties.
Note that this list, current as of fall 2022, is not of every FQHC in our region; it only includes clinics, and only those with permanent addresses. (The practice/office/physician name appears in bold.)

Medicaid Doctors, Specialists, and Dentists
If you’re interested in seeing any of providers linked to below, please confirm with them first that they are still accepting new Medicaid patients.
Specialists:
Go here to access a list of specialist physicians, listed by county, who have accepted Medicaid in the past.
Dentists:
Go here and follow either of the provided links under “Medicaid Dental Providers” to find practices that accept Medicaid or Health Choice. Note that the first link, “List of NC Medicaid Dental Providers,” takes you to page where the search tool is a bit more streamlined, and easier to navigate.
Mental Health and Behavioral Health
Medicaid-covered behavioral health services in our 34-county service area are coordinated by two different MCOs, or managed-care organizations:
The MCOs do not currently provide direct care to Medicaid patients, but rather help establish relationships with providers for mental health, substance-use issues, and intellectual/developmental disability services.
Consult the Regional Behavioral Health Map to see which MCO covers your own county.
N.C. Department of Health and Human Services (NCDHHS)
This link takes you to the main NCDHHS page, connecting you to a wealth of information and resources related to North Carolina’s management and delivery of health- and human-related services, particularly for some of our state’s most vulnerable citizens, including children, the elderly, the disabled, and low-income families.
The NCDHHS itself is divided into multiple divisions and offices, though all fall under four broad categories: health, human services, administrative, and support functions.
Social Services Departments (DSS)
Use this map at the main N.C. Department of Health and Human Services website to find your local Department of Social Services office. Click over the outline of your own county, and basic contact information for that DSS office should appear.
We’ve also included a link to the most recent list of all DSS offices across the state, arranged by county, with contact information included for each office.
Public Transportation
Not all parts of our 34-county service area have public-transportation services, but below is a list of providers who do, arranged by counties or cities of service. You’ll find contact information at each link and, often, hours of service as well.
