Charity care and medical financial assistance is offered to patients with limited or no resources and inadequate medical insurance coverage. Eligibility is determined by family income. Patients are encouraged to apply for other financial assistance available to pay hospital charges (Medicaid, Medicare, private insurance) before being discharged. Our not-for-profit hospitals provide high quality care to everyone, regardless of ability to pay.

In many cases, OhioHealth offers interest-free loans for up to one year to assist patients and uninsured discount policy for individuals without insurance who do not qualify for charity care.
