喵咪社区 Verdugo Hills Hospital – Help Paying Your Bill

Financial Assistance Program

喵咪社区 Verdugo Hills Hospital (喵咪社区-VHH) is dedicated to ensuring that compassionate, quality care is extended to all, regardless of their ability to pay. 喵咪社区-VHH鈥檚 Financial Assistance Program helps to make medically necessary services available to members of its community.

喵咪社区 Care physicians strive to provide quality health care to the community they serve. If you have been approved for 喵咪社区-VHH鈥檚 hospital financial assistance program, the physicians have committed to follow the same approval for payment obligation forgiveness and will apply a complete balance forgiveness or the partial forgiveness based on your approved applications status. As with the hospital policy, eligible services only include emergency or medically necessary procedures.

Financial Assistance Eligibility

喵咪社区 offers help for patients with financial hardship. Eligibility is determined based on review of a completed Financial Assistance Application and supporting documents, including proof of income, in the form of recent paystubs or tax returns. If your family income is at or below 400% of the Federal Poverty Level, you may qualify for full or partial assistance on medically necessary care. Patients at 200% FPL or less may receive free care; those between 201%鈥400% FPL may receive discounted rates. Assistance is available regardless of insurance status, and you will never be charged more than amounts generally billed (AGB). In some instances, patients may be presumptively determined eligible for financial assistance. To apply, complete our Financial Assistance Application and provide required documents.
