Our financial assistance policy

  • Your financial circumstances will not affect the care you receive. All patients are treated with respect and fairness.
  • Assistance is available for medically necessary care. Patients may apply for financial assistance at any time — before, during or after their care.
  • If you have no health insurance or limited insurance benefits and/or limited financial resources, you may be eligible for assistance. Uninsured patients are required to apply for Pennsylvania Medical Assistance or enroll in the Federal or State Health Insurance Marketplace.
  • Approval of financial assistance is determined by Geisinger’s policy guidelines.
  • If you do not qualify for financial assistance but believe you have special circumstances, you can request that your case be reviewed by a Geisinger financial counselor.
  • To apply for financial assistance, you must provide us with all information necessary to apply for other funding sources that may be available to you, such as Medical Assistance, Medicare Disability or other federal or state programs.
  • You are financially responsible for your healthcare and for applying for financial assistance. Geisinger will make application materials easily available.
  • You may download a financial assistance application below. If you are unable to print, and would like to request a  financial assistance application be mailed to you, call 800-640-4206.
