Olympic Medical Center is committed to serving all patients, including those who lack health insurance coverage and who cannot pay for all or part of the essential care they receive. We are committed to treating all patients with compassion. Olympic Medical Center’s Financial Assistance Program provides financial assistance for qualifying patients who need help paying for emergency or medically necessary care they receive in an Olympic Medical Center facility or by an Olympic Medical Center provider.
Who is eligible for Financial Assistance and what are the requirements?
The program helps uninsured or underinsured patients who need help paying for all or part of their medical care. Patients are eligible for Financial Assistance when their Family Income is at or below 300% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines (FPG). Evaluation of other criteria may be required. Patients should consult with a Patient Financial Service Representative at (360) 417-7111 to determine eligibility and for assistance applying. Patients who have experienced a catastrophic event may be eligible under special circumstances, regardless of household income.
What does the program cover?
The Financial Assistance Program covers medically necessary care provided at an Olympic Medical Center facility or by an Olympic Medical Center provider. This program also covers medically necessary care provided at an Olympic Medical Center facility by Radia providers. Please note that there are many non-employee (non-Olympic Medical) providers on medical staff that are not covered by this policy. Patients should contact these providers separately with questions about financial assistance. For a list of non-employee providers and their contact information, please click here.
Is there language assistance?
Interpreters are available to you at no cost. The financial assistance application, policy, and this policy summary may be available in your language. For more information please call (360) 417-7111.
