Are you currently struggling with ⌠MEDICAL BILLS?Â
âŚÂ Perhaps you should try âŚÂ FAPping!Â
Financial Aid PolicyÂ
Did you know that most hospitals and some doctorâs offices are what is known as a 501r, or âmedical non-profitâ?Â
This means they are legally required to have a âfinancial aid policyâ or âcharity care policyâÂ
What is means, is that they are LEGALLY REQUIRED under United States Law to provide FREE OR DISCOUNTED healthcare, and also to FORGIVE EXISTING MEDICAL DEBT to individuals with financial difficulty.Â
Basically, every household making und $100K a year is eligible for a reduction in their medical costs.Â
Billing departments often try to push people to get on a âpayment planâ if someone asks, but donât accept it!Â
Ask if they have a Charity Care or Financial Aid policy âBased On Income.âÂ
If it looks like you might not qualify?Â
Apply anyway. They try to scare people away with scary processes.Â
YOU QUALIFY. EVEN IF YOU ARE ALREADY IN COLLECTIONS.Â
