For many years, Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center has provided financial help to patients in need. If you do not have health insurance or are worried that your health insurance may not cover your hospital bill in full, we may be able to help.
The Memorial Sloan-Kettering Financial Assistance Program helps uninsured and underinsured patients with household income up to four times the federal poverty level who cannot get publically funded health insurance and cannot afford to pay for their medical care.
Hospital and physician fees can be reduced for patients who qualify for this Program. Aid is given based on the patient's household income, assets, family size, expenses and medical needs. Each application for assistance is handled confidentially and requires the cooperation of the applicant. More information on applying for this program can be found in the Financial Assistance Program brochure. (Este folleto está disponible en inglés y en español.)
We understand that each patient has a unique financial situation and encourage you to contact our Patient Financial Services department if you need our assistance.
