MPH & RHC Charity Care/Financial Assistance Policy
The Madison Parish Hospital Rural Health Clinic serves all patients regardless of ability to pay. Discounts for essential services provided at Madison Parish Hospital and Rural Health Clinic are offered based on family size and family income. If your family income level meets our established sliding fee scale guidelines, you may be eligible for discounted fees. However, you must apply for these reduced fees, furnish proof of income, and qualify.
In order for this application to be considered for Financial Assistance, the following documents are required, if applicable:
- Completed Financial Assistance Application
- A copy of prior year tax return
- Documentation representative of 3 month’s current income
- Copies of social security, disability, or unemployment check or award letter
- A copy of your Medicaid Decision/Denial Notice. All potentially eligible patients must provide a valid “Notice of Action” from Medicaid stating completion of the application and the reason for the acceptance or denial. Any Notice of Action stating a failure to provide information or failure to participate in the interview will not be accepted in consideration of this application for financial assistance.
If you did not file a tax return for the previous year or were not required to, you will also need to complete a 4506-T form to be mailed to the Internal Revenue Service for verification of nonfiling. We will not accept letters from employers or any other facility of any kind stating you do not have any type of income. If you need a copy of the 4506-T form, or assistance completing the form, please contact either Daisha Batiste (RHC) at 318-574-1137, or Agnes Johnson (MPH) at 318-651-5629.
