Determination of Financial Assistance Eligibility

Generally, patients are eligible for financial assistance based on their income level and family size. Patients over 200% of the federal poverty guideline (FPL) will be assessed on income level, family size and other assets. Patients or financially responsible parties with family income of 100%- 200% of FPL or less may be eligible for a discount up to 100%. See Exhibit A below for FPL and Discount information.

Patients or financially responsible parties with family income over 250% - 400% of the federal poverty level may be eligible for a discount from 40%- 60%. See Exhibit B below for FPL and Discount information.

Eligible patients will not be charged more, for emergency or other medically necessary care, than the Amount Generally Billed (AGB), based on Medicare fee-for-service rates.

Patients will not be discriminated against or denied access to services based on the individual’s race, color, sex, national origin, disability, religion, age, sexual orientation, or gender identity, or the individual’s inability to pay; whether payment for those services would be made under Medicare, Medicaid, or CHIP. A Sliding Fee Schedule based on income and family size is listed below.

If you have any questions, please call the Patient Advocate at Carroll County Memorial Hospital at (660) 542-1695 ext 7200.
