Charity Care Guidelines Application for charity care assistance may be made in the hospital's Business Office in the Dunn Tower Patient Center. Our counselors will ask the patient or family member to fill out an application and will request information about monthly income, expenses, credit card and loan obligations and assets owned. In addition, the counselor will ask for a copy of the individual's or family's most recent federal tax return as well as other documents. In evaluating the patient's application for charity care assistance, the hospital will consider the patient's income, the debts owed and assets owned. To be considered for charity care assistance, the patient cannot have assets out of proportion with the charity care assistance requested.
Charity care is available to U.S. citizens and to legal, permanent residents of the United States.
