Terre Haute Regional Hospital: Financial Assistance & Charity Care
Can't afford a bill from Terre Haute Regional 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
Free care: Free care (a 100% write-off of emergency services charges) if your annual household income is below 200% of the federal poverty guidelines.
Discounted care: If your household income is between 200% and 400% of the poverty guidelines, HCA's expanded charity care caps what you owe at 4% of your yearly income, on a sliding scale.
