Patients who need to speak with a financial counselor, need cost of care estimates, or determine if they may qualify for financial assistance to pay for procedures, may reach out about options. Financial counselors can help individuals understand patients' responsibilities and may offer no-interest payment plans. Other options may include: 

- Financial Assistance (Charity Care): Provides free or discounted care for patients who are unable to pay all or part of their medical bills. The level of discount is based on household income, family size, and assets, and applies only to medically necessary services.

- Pharmacy Assistance Fund: Offers a one-time grant of up to $500 per calendar year to eligible patients who are experiencing financial hardship. Assistance applies when prescriptions are filled at Fairview Pharmacy locations.

- Uninsured Discount: Patients without insurance who live in the United States receive an automatic discount on medically necessary hospital services.
