McBride Orthopedic Hospital (MCBOH) understands it can be difficult for some patients to afford to pay their medical bills. For this reason, MCBOH provides financial assistance for qualifying patients who receive medically necessary and generally available care from MCBOH. This summary provides a brief overview of MCBOH Financial Assistance Policy.
Who is Eligible?
Financial assistance is generally determined by your total household income as compared to the Federal Poverty Level. Patients with family incomes less than or equal to 200% of the Federal Poverty Level are eligible for a 100% charity care write-off of the portion of the charges for which you are responsible. Patients with family incomes ranging from 200% to 300% of the Federal Poverty Level, are eligible for discounted rates on a sliding scale. To qualify for financial assistance, patients must complete a financial assistance application, provide requested documents to verify financial need and meet other eligibility criteria. Patients who are eligible for financial assistance will not be charged more for eligible care than the amount generally billed to patients who have insurance coverage covering such care. You may be asked if you have insurance of any kind to help pay for care. You may be asked to show that insurance or a government program will not pay for care.
What Services are Covered?
Financial assistance is only available for health services that are both medically necessary and generally available and provided by MCBOH. These terms are defined in the Financial Assistance Policy.
How Can I Apply?
You must apply for financial assistance by completing a written application and providing requested supporting documentation, as described in the Financial Assistance Policy and the Financial Assistance application. The Financial Policy application instructions will be made available upon patient request at the time of service.
If a patient wishes to apply for financial assistance after the medical services have been provided, the Financial Assistance application and instructions may be accessed and printed directly from this page.
Patients may also request a copy of the Financial Assistance application instructions by mail. To request a copy of the documents by mail, patients should call the MCBOH Business Office at (405) 486-2385.
