Financial Assistance Program
Blue Mountain Hospital District’s financial assistance program helps ensure all patients can access necessary health care, regardless of financial challenges or insurance status.
This program is completely confidential: your information will not be shared or released outside of the review process.
To determine eligibility, patients must complete a Financial Assistance Application, which includes information relating to household income, assets, and family size. A 25% self-pay discount is also available for uninsured patients when balances are paid within 30 days of the first statement.
We are also committed to working with our patients to establish a payment plan based on the amount due and the patient’s financial status, even if you do not qualify for the assistance program.
Financial aid paperwork is available online and can be mailed or picked up in person. If you have questions about the program, application, or determining your eligibility, please contact the Billing Department at: (541) 575-4156.
We will review your information promptly, and generally notify you of your eligibility within 30 calendar days of receiving a complete financial assistance application, including documentation of income.
We want to help.
Please submit your application as soon as possible! You may receive bills until we process your application.
