Bates County Health Center The Bates County Health Center is dedicated to protecting the health and well-being of the citizens

Since its establishment on August 3, 1976, the Bates County Health Center has been dedicated to protecting the health and well-being of the citizens of the county. Although services offered have changed over the years, we still strive to fulfill the mission of public health which is to prevent/promote/protect our citizens. The Bates County Health Center is dedicated to the prevention of disease and the maintenance of a high level of health in the family and community through education, immunization, inspection and response. A variety of health screenings, disease testing, immunizations, health education and certified birth and death certificates are offered at the Health Center. While some services are available at no cost to Bates County residents, others have a fee based on the cost of providing the service or based on fees set through Missouri State Statutes.
