How to apply for Rochester Regional Health — Geneva General Hospital — Financial Assistance (Seneca County)

Rochester Regional Health (RRH) — operates Geneva General Hospital (Geneva, formerly Finger Lakes Health) as the principal hospital for eastern Ontario + western Seneca counties; merged into RRH in 2018

Who it's for

Seneca County's principal community hospital safety net is Geneva General Hospital (Geneva, Rochester Regional Health, formerly Finger Lakes Health) — serves eastern Ontario + western Seneca; tertiary referrals route to Rochester General or URMC Strong; Schuyler Hospital (Montour Falls, Cayuga Health System) serves southern Seneca / Schuyler. 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. Note: NY Medicaid ABD's ~138% FPL gate means many Finger Lakes seniors qualify for Medicaid and would access these hospitals through Medicaid rather than FAP.
