Good News - Charity Care is Available at all Long Island Hospitals

Let your clients know that all Long Island Hospitals must:

inform all patients how to apply for financial help
inform all patients of the eligibility requirements
inform all patients as to what services are covered

All of the above information must be made available in English and Spanish. Each hospital has its own charity care policy and sets its own criteria for eligibility. If your clients have problems applying for charity care they may call the county’s complaint line at the Department of Health in Suffolk (631) 853-3005, in Nassau (516) 571-2672.
