The financial support for which you may qualify. Under the provisions of section 5112.17 of the Ohio Revised Code, Mercer County Community Hospital shall provide basic, medically necessary, hospital-level services free of charge to any non-Medicaid Ohio resident, who is either covered by Disability Assistance or has a family income at or below the Federal Poverty Guideline on the date of service.
This provision is referred to as the Ohio Hospital Care Assurance Program (HCAP). Mercer County Community Hospital has expanded their own Financial Assistance Program to include all billed services excluded by HCAP and a sliding scale discount for incomes above 100% the federal poverty guideline up to 200%. It shall also include all billed services on a single encounter that exceed one year’s family gross income for those that don’t qualify under the poverty guidelines.
To apply for such assistance, consumers must complete, sign and return the application located on the back of their statement letters to the Patient Accounts Department, Mercer County Community Hospital, 800 West Main Street, Coldwater, OH 45828 along with proof of income. We accept applications anytime on any open balance account and only 3 years from date of first statement on accounts in which the balance has been previously paid. For patients qualifying for free care, patients must provide proof of applying for Ohio Medicaid first. For assistance in completing, questions regarding the application or to receive a new application, consumers may call our Financial Advisor at 419-678-5148 or Patient Accounts Office at 419-678-5151.
