Financial Assistance Plain Language Summary

Updated August 2026

Cimarron Memorial Hospital offers financial assistance to eligible patients who cannot pay the full cost of emergency or other medically necessary care. Help may include free care or a discount on the patient-responsibility portion of a hospital bill.

Who May Qualify?

Eligibility is based mainly on gross household income, household size, financial hardship, and reasonable cooperation with the application process. The standard assistance schedule uses the current Federal Poverty Guidelines (FPG):

  • At or below 100% FPG: 100% adjustment (free care)
  • Above 100% through 150% FPG: 75% adjustment
  • Above 150% through 200% FPG: 50% adjustment
  • Above 200% through 250% FPG: 25% adjustment
  • Above 250% FPG: No standard assistance; extraordinary financial hardship may still be considered.

Financial assistance applies to eligible emergency and other medically necessary hospital services. Some services provided by independent clinicians or other providers may not be covered. Please review the Financial Assistance Providers List or contact the Business Office for more information.

How Do I Apply?

Complete the Financial Assistance Application and return it with available documents supporting household income, such as a recent federal tax return, W-2, two recent pay stubs, Social Security or retirement statements, unemployment documentation, or other available proof.

If you cannot provide a requested document, explain why on the application. You may also describe extraordinary financial hardship.

Submit the completed application and supporting documents to the Cimarron Memorial Hospital Business Office in person or by mail. Registration or Business Office staff can help you complete the application at no charge.
