Thompson Hospital (Canandaigua, UR Medicine Thompson Health / URMC affiliate) — Ontario's principal community hospital; Geneva General Hospital (Geneva, Rochester Regional Health) is the secondary; tertiary referrals route to URMC Strong Memorial. The Financial Assistance Program covers uninsured/underinsured residents — sliding scale typically discounts charges up to 100% at the lower income brackets with reduced rates above.
