Hutchinson Regional Medical Center offers financial assistance through its Financial Assistance Policy to patients unable to pay for emergency and medically necessary care.

Eligibility Requirements and Assistance Offered

Eligibility for financial assistance is based on multiple factors, including the nature of the condition and care required, insurance coverage or other sources of payment (including personal injury claims), income (Federal Poverty Level guidelines used to determine the amount of financial assistance offered), family size, assets, and any special consideration the patient or physician would like to have considered.

Financial assistance is offered to patients who are uninsured and underinsured. Partial or full financial assistance will be granted based on a patient’s ability to pay the billed charges.

Patients must fully comply with the application process, including submitting tax returns, bank statements and pay stubs, as well as, completing the application process for all available sources of assistance, including Medicaid or Medical Assistance.

How to Apply for Financial Assistance with HRMC

The patient or any person involved in the care of the patient, including a family member or provider, may express financial concerns at any point during the patient’s care. The patient or responsible party will then be encouraged to complete the financial assistance application.

Financial assistance is limited to medical care provided at HRMC and by HRMC personnel. Expenses such as travel, food, lodging, durable medical equipment and prescriptions are not covered under the Financial Assistance Policy. HRMC will uphold the confidentiality and dignity of each patient and any information submitted for consideration of financial assistance will be treated as protected health information under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).
