Medical bills shouldn’t keep you from getting the care you need. That’s why we offer financial assistance. In compliance with IRS Code 501(r), we:
- Have a writtenfinancial assistance policy (FAP)and “plain language summary” of the policy, available to the public
- Limit the amounts that can be charged for emergency or other medically necessary care to individuals who qualify for financial assistance, charging only “Amounts Generally Billed” for such care
- Refrain from extraordinary collection actions before making reasonable efforts to determine whether an individual qualifies for financial assistance
Additionally, on July 1, 2016, Penn State Health introduced new financial assistance policies and processes that give eligible patients 100% financial assistance for medically necessary services.
