BUNNELL, Fla. - s4story -- The Flagler Free Clinic has earned a 2026 Gold Rating from the National Association of Free and Charitable Clinics (NAFC) Quality Standards Program for the second consecutive year. The achievement underscores the clinic's sustained commitment to providing high-quality, accessible healthcare to uninsured residents of Flagler and Volusia counties.

The NAFC works to build healthy communities through quality, equitable and accessible healthcare. To measure and maintain care standards across its national network, the association established a comprehensive set of Quality Standards that member organizations voluntarily adopt and implement.

Standards span critical areas including administrative policies, clinic and pharmacy responsibilities, credentialing and privileging systems, patient care and risk management.

"Earning this recognition two years in a row speaks to the heart of who we are," said Terri Belletto, Executive Director of the Flagler Free Clinic. "Every volunteer, staff member and supporter plays a role in making sure our patients receive compassionate, high-quality care at no cost. That mission drives everything we do, and this rating confirms we are meeting the standard our community deserves."
