Catholic charities is one I can think of at this time. I went through all of this when my dad was sick. If this facility is denying you treatment because you don't have the 20% after Medicare pays then find another place that will treat you. My dad had Medicare only and chances are he would have had a spend down if he had Medicaid. He was refused treatment because he didn't have the 20% which would have been $300 and some odd dollars for 16 weeks of chemo and they never offered a payment plan. I started taking my dad to the VA hospital because he was already in debt to ears and most of it wasn't from medical expenses. I won't go into further detail but if you can afford a supplemental insurance then get one. I found plans for my dad and the only stipulation was that he wasn't in renal failure (he was) for most of the ones I called. I spent hours on the computer. Good luck and God Bless.
