## State program in Oregon

### Nonprofit hospital financial assistance minimums (ORS 442.614)

Oregon law sets the least help a nonprofit hospital must give. If your household income is at or below 200% of the federal poverty level, your share of the bill must be cut by 100%, so it is free. From 200% to 300%, the cut is at least 75%. From 300% to 350%, at least 50%. From 350% to 400%, at least 25%. This applies to all medically necessary care, and to the hospital's nonprofit clinics too. The hospital may not make you apply for the Oregon Health Plan before it screens you or gives help. Hospitals may give more than this. The rule covers nonprofit hospitals only. It does not cover for-profit hospitals, the Oregon State Hospital, or VA and other federal hospitals.

Income levels in the program are free up to 200%, discount up to 400% of poverty level.

Applies to nonprofit hospitals located in Oregon and their nonprofit affiliated clinics; excludes the Oregon State Hospital and VA and other federal hospitals. It does not apply to for-profit hospitals.

How to apply. Contact the hospital's financial assistance office. Every Oregon hospital must accept an application online, by mail, or in person, and must give you a paper copy on request. Many patients are screened automatically before the first bill. You can still apply if you were not screened, if you disagree with the result, or up to 12 months after you pay.

> For a patient whose household income is not more than 200 percent of the federal poverty guidelines, by 100 percent
