The Holy Cross Hospital Financial Assistance Program
Holy Cross Hospital is committed to being the most trusted provider of health care services in our community. That involves a commitment to provide accessible services to individuals who do not have either the personal resources to pay for necessary care or eligibility to qualify for programs that would provide coverage (Medicaid, M-CHIP, MHIP, etc.).

Holy Cross Hospital has a financial assistance program that offers free or discounted services to patients who qualify. Applications and information are available through the financial counselors, cashiers and in patient registration areas. Your hospital bill will not include fees charged by non-hospital-employed physicians. These fees will appear on separate bills, sent to your home, from the physicians who perform the services.

For more information, please call our financial counselors at 301-754-7195.

The Health Insurance Marketplace
When key parts of the health care law take effect in 2014, there’ll be a new way to get health insurance: the Health Insurance Marketplace. The Marketplace is designed to help individuals and families find health insurance that fits their budget, with less hassle.

For more information, please visit our page about the Health Insurance Marketplace.

The Maryland Health Insurance Plan
If you have been turned down for health insurance, have a chronic health condition, or have difficulty paying expensive premiums, the Maryland Health Insurance Plan (MHIP) may be right for you. MHIP recently reduced premiums for eligible individuals and families based on their income level.
