How to apply for Evangelical Community Hospital + Geisinger Selinsgrove — Financial Assistance (Snyder County)

Who it's for

Snyder County's principal community hospital safety net is Snyder County has no in-county hospital. Residents access Evangelical Community Hospital (Lewisburg, Union, ~15 min north) + Geisinger Selinsgrove outpatient + Geisinger Medical Center Danville (Montour) for tertiary care.. Each system operates a Financial Assistance Program (sliding scale typically to 300-400% FPL). Note: PA Medicaid ABD is STRICT (~$989/month), so many low-income seniors fall above Medicaid and rely on hospital FAPs. Central PA hospital landscape is dominated by Geisinger Health System (anchored at Geisinger Medical Center Danville, Montour County) with UPMC and Guthrie expansions. Apply at the hospital's financial counseling office or at https://www.geisinger.org/patient-care/billing-financial-assistance. Phone: 570-374-6203.
