Oncology Patient
Financial Assistance
Program

Providing support to oncology patients as they undergo their treatment journey.

Gifts of encouragement and support.

Our Memorial Health Foundation offers a program to assist patients receiving oncology care at Memorial Health. Our Oncology Patient Financial Assistance Program provides funds to financially assist patients with appointment co-pays, co-insurance, deductibles, prescriptions, and/or transportation costs. Our hope is to alleviate some of the financial burden for patients so they may focus on their health while undergoing cancer treatment.

Our program is funded by generous corporate and individual contributors, special fundraisers, as well as funds from the United Way of Union County as a Funded Partner.
