Johnson County Health Center

The Johnson County Health Department, located in Mountain City, TN, is a public health facility operated by the Tennessee Department of Health. It primarily focuses on preventive health, health education, and community well-being rather than acute care or emergency services. The center offers a range of essential public health programs including immunizations, WIC, family planning, STD/HIV testing, environmental health services, and limited primary care. It does not operate as a hospital with inpatient beds or an emergency room. Services are often available on a sliding scale or through state-funded programs, accepting various public and some private insurance plans. The facility employs public health nurses and other specialists, but does not typically list individual doctors in the same manner as a hospital.
