Charity Care Program – Financial Assistance
Charity Care is available to patients who do not have the means to pay for hospital expenses and do not qualify for any government or other programs to cover their medical expenses. You may qualify for hospital financial assistance if your household income is below 200% of the federal poverty limit, or if your income is 200%-500% FPL and you are unable to pay outstanding medical bills. To be considered for financial assistance, you will be required to provide information on your household finances through a confidential Financial Application. Documentation will be requested to verify your circumstances in order to determine and confirm your eligibility. Please contact Eligibility and Enrollment Services at 972.892.3026 for more information, or to request a Charity application.
