What if I don’t have insurance and I can’t afford to pay?
All patients will be treated, and if necessary, transported to a hospital emergency department. Always call 911 in an emergency, regardless of your billing concerns. Our first priority is your health and safety, not Cost Recovery!

Citizens who disclose financial hardships will be billed accordingly, using an “ability-to-pay” scale.

All citizens will be encouraged to subscribe to Fare Care, a yearly subscription plan designed to help pay emergency medical transport expenses not covered by their health care provider, Medicaid or Medicare.
