Sliding Fee Discount Program
To ensure that language is not a barrier for our non-English speaking patients, ARMS employs highly qualified and competent bilingual staff who work closely with other agencies to ensure the continuity of care and availability of resources for our non-English Speaking population.
A Sliding Fee Discount Program (SFDP) is provided by ARMS to low-income patients, with or without insurance, to assure access to care regardless of a patient’s ability to pay. Ability to pay is determined by the family size and annual income relative to a discount schedule based on Federal poverty income guidelines. To qualify for the SFDP, you must provide the following with application:
- Photo Identification (Driver’s License, Passport, Visa, Green Card, School ID)
- Written verification of household monthly income (e.g., Pay stubs, Federal tax return, W-2, Award letter from Social Security or the Food Stamps Program, etc.)
