A medical hardship letter is used by a person to request partial or full forgiveness of medical debt from a hospital or healthcare provider.
All hospitals offer discounts or bill forgiveness based on income. On average, a family of 4 earning less than $100,000 a year will qualify. You can apply for financial assistance before or at the time of your hospital treatment or service.
Unfortunately, my circumstances are unlikely to improve in the foreseeable future and I have no assets to sell to help clear my debt. I am therefore asking you to consider writing off my debt as I can see no way of ever repaying it. If you are unable to agree to this, please explain your reasons.
State social services agencies provide direct assistance to people with limited access to health care. They can offer referrals to local health centers and organizations that may be able to help. If you are eligible for Medicare, you can get help paying for your prescriptions through Medicare Part D.
