Midamerica Rehabilitation Hospital: Financial Assistance & Charity Care

Can't afford a bill from Midamerica Rehabilitation Hospital? You may not have to pay all of it. Nonprofit hospitals must offer financial assistance — here are this hospital's actual income limits and how to apply, taken from its own published policy.

Quick facts

How to apply

1. Check the income limits above — free care at or below 200% of the federal poverty level, and sliding-scale discounts up to 400%.
2. Ask the hospital for the financial assistance application — free copies are available in the admitting and registration areas, or call 913-491-2400 and ask for patient accounts.
3. Fill out the application and attach proof of income and family size, such as pay stubs or a tax return.
4. Approval covers medically necessary care for the rest of the calendar year, so you don't need to reapply for later visits that year.

Good to know

• You can apply up to 240 days after your first bill — even if the bill already went to collections.
