You may qualify for Financial Assistance based on your income and family size for the patient responsibility portion of the bill, even if you have health insurance. Valley provides financial assistance for any patient/guarantor whose gross family income is up to 400% of the Federal Poverty Level (FPL) and adjusted for family size after any third-party coverage has been exhausted.

For facility and/or professional services:

• 0% - 300% of the FPL for a 100% financial assistance discount

For facility services only with discharge dates on or after July 1, 2022:

• 301% - 350% of the FPL for a 75% financial assistance discount
• 351% - 400% of the FPL for a 50% financial assistance discount

A family size greater than one person refers to persons related by birth, marriage, or adoption who live together; all such related persons are considered members of one family.
