Berger Gives Charity Care Above and Beyond
Like many Ohio hospitals, Berger Health System ensures care for low-income
members of its community through a charity care program that well exceeds the
responsibility that Ohio hospitals provide medically-necessary care free of
charge to patients with incomes at or below the federal poverty line. The
system’s sliding-scale discount applies to patients whose income falls anywhere
from the federal poverty level up to 250 percent. Cathy VanHorn is one of the
many Berger associates who work to ensure patients receive exemplary and
affordable care.
