Financial Assistance Program

All patients are eligible to apply for financial assistance, including those with insurance and health benefits plan coverage. Established guidelines are used to determine what amount of a patient’s bill for emergency care and medically necessary care, if any, will qualify for financial assistance. The financial assistance discount applies only to the amount the patient is personally responsible for paying.

The amount of financial assistance is a discount percentage determined on a sliding scale based solely on income and family size. Families with an income at or below 200 percent of the Federal Poverty Guidelines (FPG) will receive a 100 percent discount. Patients with family incomes ranging from greater than 200 percent up to 400 percent of FPG are eligible for a sliding scale discount up to 100 percent based on the number of household members.

If a patient’s financial circumstances do not satisfy the criteria for assistance under the policy discount guidelines, a patient may still be able to obtain financial assistance. In these situations, Logan Health patient account representatives will review the patient’s situation and make a determination on the patient’s eligibility for other financial assistance. This may include seeking Medicaid coverage, for example.

A patient may apply for financial assistance at any time up to 240 days after the first bill is sent for an episode of care. Even if no application is filed, Logan Health may be able to determine if a patient is eligible for a certain level of assistance. Each patient’s situation will be evaluated according to that patient’s relevant circumstances, such as family income, and other resources available to the patient or patient’s family, and the amount the patient is personally responsible to pay.
