Financial Assistance Program & Sliding Fee Scale
Sliding Fee Scale Goodland Regional Medical Center and Goodland Family Health Center provide medical care for those who meet established income guidelines at a discounted price. This program is for patients who do not have insurance or who still owe a balance after insurance has paid, but who do not qualify for public benefits.
The basis for determining eligibility for assistance through the Program is the current Poverty Income Guidelines issued by the Department of Health and Human Services.
In order to be eligible for assistance, a patient’s account must be in good standing and the patient, or responsible party must verify certain information. An example of the information includes complete financial statements and documentation of all income received including Income Tax returns, check stubs, state assistance programs, etc. A written denial from Department of Children and Families (DCF) stating that the patient is not eligible for assistance is also required. All of this information must be provided to the Patient Accounts Representative within 30 days of requesting Financial Assistance under this Program.
