Part VI. Waiver of Charges
In instances when patients have financial hardships and there are no other avenues of care, the patient, guardian or other authorized person may request a waiver of charges for up to 180 calendar days. A waiver shall be requested in writing to the district director. If a waiver is granted, it shall be for the duration of the financial hardship or 180 days, whichever is shorter.
If the waiver request is approved, the patient will receive a full discount for all charges while covered by the waiver. If the waiver request is denied, the charges will continue as before.
