  • Under 21 or over 65 years of age

You may obtain a Medi-Cal application. 

Charity Care Program 

Charity Care is available if you don’t have the resources to pay your hospital expenses and don’t qualify for any government programs. If your household income is below 350 percent of the federal poverty limit or if your out-of-pocket medical costs exceed 10 percent of your household income in the past 12 months, you may qualify for Charity Care. You will be required to provide information about your household finances through a confidential application.
