CRH makes changes to financial assistance plans

Columbus Regional Health will be changing its requirements for assistance paying medical bills for those without insurance.

According to a recent announcement from the hospital, starting next year those who are already receiving financial aid and those who want to apply will need to provide proof that they are ineligible for health insurance coverage or unable to secure health care coverage.

Anyone unable to attain medical insurance must present an official denial letter as well as proof of being a U.S. resident to be eligible for financial assistance consideration.

However, financial assistance plans and options will remain available to cover remaining balances after an in-network or contracted insurance has paid its portion.
