Lenoir Memorial Hospital, Inc. offers Financial Assistance to patients that do not have the ability to pay part or all of their hospital bills. Financial Assistance is calculated on a sliding scale based on the Federal Poverty Guidelines published in the Federal Register each year, and number of persons in the household sharing the same income. The patient is requested to complete a brief application and provide evidence of income.
Patients that do not qualify for Financial Assistance at 100% can be considered for Medical Indigence. Medical Indigence is determined when a patient’s medical expenses for one year exceed a percentage of the family’s total gross annual income and total household assets are not sufficient to cover the expense without the liquidation of assets critical to living or earning a living (home, car, retirement).
Financial Assistance qualification may also be determined based on a patient’s eligibility for subsidized housing. Patients residing in public assisted facilities thereby meeting qualification criteria for HUD (Department of Housing and Urban Development) may also qualify for Lenoir Memorial Hospital’s Financial Assistance Program.
