"...Baptist Health is dedicated to providing high-quality, cost-effective, compassionate services to all...including, as permitted by its resources, charity care to those in need."
  -- Baptist Health Mission Statement

As a faith-based organization, we are serious about our mission to help those in need.  We provide free care to people who have no health insurance and who qualify for our financial assistance program.

The eligibility criteria of our financial assistance program are more generous than the state’s charity care definition.  The state’s charity care definition is based on family income at or below 300 percent of the federal poverty guidelines or charges exceeding 25 percent of family income (as long as family income is less than 400 percent of the federal poverty guidelines).  The criteria we use for determining financial assistance eligibility are reviewed annually.  The criteria may be revised upward or downward by the Baptist Health governing board, which consists entirely of community volunteers.

If you are interested in applying for this program, please contact our Patient Financial Services representatives at 786-596-6507.
