  • Sliding Fee Discount Eligibility

  • The Sliding Fee Discount Program is a federal program that permits KCS Health Center (“KCS”) to discount normal charges for all services provided within KCS’s scope of project. Eligibility is based on income and family size only (*Household/Family size is defined as all residents living in a single-family dwelling unit). In order to be eligible for the Sliding Fee Scale, you must provide accurate and acceptable proof of income, as well as list all persons, by your second visit (2nd) or no later than sixty (60) days from second visit. If documentation is not provided, the patient will be liable for 100% of the charges. The first visit will be on the honor system based on information provided on the In-Take form (temporary eligibility). You must report any changes in family income or number of members in the household when these changes occur. Information must be updated every twelve (12) months or with any change of household income or household size. Falsification of this information will result in forfeiture of Sliding Fee Scale privileges and possible release from the practice as it is a violation of Federal Law. See KCS’s Sliding Fee Discount Program Policy for full details of acceptable forms of proof of income and family size.
