Cost of Services
Sarasota County Health Department works to
make sure its services are available to as many people as possible.
The cost of a service depends on your ability to pay. Some
services are always free; others require you to pay if you have an
ability. Your ability to pay is determined by the Eligibility
office at SCHD (see below).
The best way to find out the cost of a
particular service, once you know your eligibility status, is to contact
that service department directly. You can find contact information
listed under each service's web page or on the
Contact Us page.
