Income is Up to 100% of Federal Poverty Guidelines

After a financial assessment of the patients income has been completed, the patients bill will be reduced by 100% if their income level is at or below 100% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines and they are a resident of the State of Ohio. Non-Residents of the State of Ohio requiring Emergency, Trauma, or Burn Care will receive 100% reduction if their income is at or below 100% of the Federal Poverty Income Guidelines. Non-residents of the State of Ohio will be provided assistance to receive other services in their home state OR receive a 75% reduction to their bill.



Income is 101 300% of Federal Poverty Guidelines

After a financial assessment of the patients income has been completed, the patients bill will be reduced by 100% if their income level is between 101% and 300% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines and they are a resident of Cuyahoga County. Non-Residents of Cuyahoga County requiring Emergency, Trauma, or Burn Care will receive 100% reduction if their income is between 101% and 300% of the Federal Poverty Income Guidelines. Non-residents of Cuyahoga County will be provided assistance to receive other services in their home county or state OR receive a 75% reduction to their bill.



Income is 301 400% of Federal Poverty Guidelines

After a financial assessment of the patients income and assets have been completed, the patients bill will be reduced by 75% if their income level is between 301% and 400% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines and they are a resident of Cuyahoga County. Non-Residents of Cuyahoga County requiring Emergency, Trauma, or Burn Care will receive a 75% reduction if their income is between 301% and 400% of the Federal Poverty Income Guidelines. Non-residents of Cuyahoga County will be provided assistance to receive other services in their home county or state OR receive a 75% reduction to their bill.



Income is Over 400% of Federal Poverty Guidelines

After a financial assessment of the patient's income and assets has been completed, uninsured patients over 400% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines will be enrolled in the Self-Pay/Uninsured Program. Residents of Cuyahoga County will automatically receive a 65% reduction to their bill. Non-Residents of Cuyahoga County automatically will receive a 50% reduction to their bill which is equivalent to MetroHealth's average insurance discount.



Presumptive Charity Care

MetroHealth has a process to validate the patients ability to pay, and in the event that the patient does not contact us, nor apply for financial assistance, we may extend the patient charity care for that episode of care. This applies only to patients who do not inform us of insurance coverage.
