Free/Very Lost Cost Medical Insurance Programs

 I (Michelle) just learned of a new free insurance program offered by Waterville Maine's Inland Hospital. It is for people who do not qualify for Maine Care but can not personally afford the sky high out of pocket expense of other insurances.http://www.inlandhospital.org/pas.aspx?id=2910

One can fill out an application prior to receiving care or in the case of needing to go to the ER, one can receive care prior to filling out the form. If approved for the program, the cost will be covered.According to the website,the 2009  upper income guidelines for a family of 2 was $29,140.http://www.inlandhospital.org/assets/0/276/310/552/566/1784/FF39341E-9A65-49B1-98D7-074169FB3A6F.pdf
Wendy Wing is the   program's  financial adviser;she can be reached at 861-3025.
