Stanford Health Care has a variety of financial options available to our patients who are uninsured or underinsured. If you are facing financial hardship, we encourage you to apply to Medi-Cal or explore other government programs that may be of assistance. If you do not qualify for those programs, or if you have substantial financial liabilities despite having insurance, you may qualify for our financial assistance program.
Those with a family income at or below 400 percent of the federal poverty level (FPL) guidelines are generally eligible for 100 percent assistance. The table below shows the criteria for receiving 100 percent financial assistance.

- Estimating your financial responsibility for services not covered by insurance
- Identifying possible ways for you to pay for your care if you do not have adequate funds or health insurance
- Helping you identify and obtain coverage for government programs, where available
- Addressing questions or concerns regarding your insurance coverage and financial assistance
Reach a financial counselor at 844-498-2900 from Monday – Friday, 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. Financial counselors strive to make the financial concerns surrounding your care as stress free as possible, so you can focus on what is most important—your health.
