Who it's for

Hillsdale Hospital offers financial assistance and charity care for low-income, uninsured, or underinsured patients with hospital bills. Discounts are based on the federal poverty level. Call a financial counselor at 517-437-5222 to ask for an application.

Discounts are determined using the federal poverty level. Liquid asset limits apply (about $7,500 for a single person and $15,000 for a family), insurance must be exhausted first, and elective procedures do not qualify. The hospital makes the final determination. Not legal or financial advice.
