How to apply for Scotland Health Care Financial Assistance - Scotland County

Scotland Health Care System / Scotland Memorial Hospital (Laurinburg)

Who it's for

Scotland Memorial Hospital, part of the not-for-profit Scotland Health Care System in Laurinburg, is the main hospital serving Scotland County. Its financial assistance program helps patients who cannot afford their hospital bills, reviewing household income and family size to decide free or discounted care. The hospital uses the look-back method so qualifying patients are not charged more than the amounts generally billed to insured patients. Financial counselors can help. Call 910-291-7971 to apply or ask questions.

The hospital provides free or discounted (charity) care to lower-income patients based on household income and family size, so this shows as a may-qualify result. Financial counselors can help you apply.

What you'll need

  • Proof of household income (pay stubs, Social Security award letter, tax return)
  • Proof of family size and Scotland County residency
  • Completed hospital financial assistance application
