GRAYSON COUNTY HOSPITAL FOUNDATION

TWIN LAKES REGIONAL MEDICAL CENTER PROVIDES QUALITY MEDICAL HEALTH CARE SERVICES TO PATIENTS REGARDLESS OF RACE, CREED, SEX, NATIONAL ORIGIN, HANDICAP, AGE, OR THE ABILITY TO PAY. ALTHOUGH REIMBURSEMENT FOR SERVICES RENDERED IS CRITICAL TO THE OPERATION AND FINANCIAL STABILITY OF TWIN LAKES REGIONAL MEDICAL CENTER, IT IS RECOGNIZED THAT NOT ALL INDIVIDUALS POSSESS THE ABILITY TO PURCHASE ESSENTIAL MEDICAL SERVICES. IN KEEPING WITH OUR COMMITMENT TO SERVE ALL MEMBERS OF THIS AREA, THE HOSPITAL PROVIDES FREE CARE TO THE MOST INDIGENT OF PATIENTS AND WRITES OFF PORTIONS OF BILLS TO OTHER PATIENTS WHO HAVE DEMONSTRATED THE INABILITY TO PAY FOR ALL HEALTH CARE SERVICES RECEIVED.
