Medical Debt Clinic

adult learning business finance


Are you, or someone you know, having a problem with medical debt? Get expert advice from Hospital Bill Assistance Team volunteers, who can help you apply for financial assistance through DollarFor, a national nonprofit that helps patients crush medical bills.

Every New York hospital has a financial assistance program, and you’ll be surprised to know that you might qualify if you make $62,600 or less as an individual or if your household of four earns $128,600 or less a year. Some hospitals are more flexible and you may qualify with a higher income. These programs help both patients with and without insurance, regardless of immigration status.

Come talk to a volunteer in-person at the library who will review your situation. You will need to bring your hospital bill (paper bills or MyChart account) and proof of income (pay stub, tax return).

Registration is required. We will reach out to you to confirm your appointment time.

Appointments will be 45 minutes. Spanish, Mandarin and French speaking volunteers will be available.
