Health fairs provide a variety of low-cost screening for heart disease, cancer and diabetes, while also providing a wealth of information for individuals using their services.

A hospital-based health fair setting has the ability to provide ongoing prevention and health promotion services while referring those needing attention to community groups that can share in the costs of treating the uninsured.
