Our Medical Financial Assistance program provides temporary financial assistance to help qualified patients pay for health care based on their financial need. This includes emergency, urgent, or medically necessary care, as well as pharmacy services and products received from Kaiser Permanente providers or facilities.

Patients who qualify may receive financial assistance for some or all of their medical costs, regardless of whether they have health insurance, are uninsured, or are underinsured.

Qualifying for financial assistance does not guarantee access to nonurgent or nonemergency services, which may be subject to availability, medical necessity, and other clinical or operational criteria.
