Surprised! How wonderful to receive a check in the amount of over 400$ from Ascension Health-St. Thomas. My husband thought it was a scam and told me to throw the check away. We had paid all of his medical bills before they were due because he hopes to retire soon without having the heavy burden of hospital debt. The insurance policy he has is a very high deductible plan and low percentage of co-pay after the deductible is paid. Also, he has high out of pocket expenses. His age and income are below the national level. So after reading Ascension's web site I figured out why we received this $$. As it so happens we received a bill for another hospital visit from 2016, in the same week as the check was received. Here's where karma comes back in a good way. LOL I do have faith in the system of great doctors and the hospital administration. (Hospital administration even made a visit to his hospital room after a issue had been reported about the room). Every need we requested was handled in the best possible professional way. Now to receive the financial help has made the experience a bit easier. He had open heart surgery Feb. 13, 2017 and a total of 53 days in the hospital and a rehab facility that St. Thomas referred him to for recovery.

Thanks so much for the financial help!! Healthcare has taken a big hit and providing this service brings hope that you do care!!
