Your rights under IRS Section 501(r)
Because nonprofit hospitals are tax-exempt, IRS Section 501(r) requires each one to maintain a written Financial Assistance Policy, make it publicly available, limit charges for FAP-eligible patients to the amounts generally billed to insured patients, and hold off on extraordinary collection actions while an application window (at least 240 days from the first billing statement) is open. 501(r) does not set a specific income threshold; each hospital's own policy does.
