Can I receive care without insurance?

Memorial Regional Hospital understands that navigating health care without insurance can be a significant concern for many individuals. While it is true that having insurance can help cover the costs of medical services, there are still options available for those without coverage. Hospitals often have provisions for financial assistance or charity care programs to support uninsured patients. These programs can help reduce the cost of treatment based on the individual's financial situation. Patients can receive emergency care regardless of their insurance status, as hospitals are required by law to provide care in emergency situations. It is advisable for individuals to communicate their situation to the hospital staff upon arrival. Memorial Regional Hospital, like many health care facilities, may have a financial counselor available to assist patients in understanding their options for payment plans or financial aid. For specific information regarding services and assistance that may be available, individuals are encouraged to visit the current website of Memorial Regional Hospital, where they can find details on eligibility and application processes for financial support.
