## State program in New Jersey

### New Jersey Hospital Care Payment Assistance Program (Charity Care)

Every acute care hospital in New Jersey takes part in the state Charity Care program. It is for New Jersey residents who have no insurance, or insurance that pays only part of the bill, and who cannot get Medicaid. If your household income is at or below 200% of the federal poverty level, necessary hospital care may be free. From 201% to 300%, you may pay a reduced share of 20%, 40%, 60%, or 80% of the bill, depending on income. Above 300%, the program does not lower the bill. Your assets must be $7,500 or less for one person, or $15,000 or less for a family. If you have more, you can spend the extra on medical bills first. The hospital will screen you for Medicaid and other coverage first. You have up to one year from the date of service to apply. Bills from private doctors, anesthesia, radiology readings, and outpatient prescriptions may not be covered.

Income levels in the program are free up to 200%, discount up to 300% of poverty level.

Applies to all acute care hospitals in New Jersey; New Jersey residents who are uninsured or whose coverage pays only part of the bill and who are not eligible for Medicaid.

How to apply. Apply at the business office or admissions office of the hospital where you got care. Bring proof of identity, New Jersey residency, income, and assets.
