Christus Hopkins Health Alliance

Charity care: financial assistance is free or discounted health care services provided to persons who cannot afford to pay and who meet the eligibility criteria in the organziation's financial assistance policy (fap). For community benefit purposes, financial assistance is reported in terms of costs, not charges. Financial assistance does not include bad debt and discounts not described by the fap (for example, discounts provided to self-pay patients and/or services ineligible for financial assistance).

Other government programs: in addition to the provision of charity care and other community services, christus health provides services to persons covered under government-sponsored programs, including medicare and tricare for example. The unreimbursed costs of these services are reported to the state of texas but are not included in reports prepared following catholic health association guidelines. This includes medicare, dod, and champus.
