ABILITY-TO-PAY PLAN (ATP) INFORMATION


What is ATP: Under the ATP Plan, you can get health care at County hospitals and clinics at no cost or at lower cost.

How Do You Apply: You must request a financial screening appointment. To do so, call or come in to one of the specified County health centers. Some centers will give you your appointment on the same day they care for you. But you may have to wait.

ATP Covers: For clinic care, you only must apply once each six months. The ATP worker will figure out what you must pay, if anything, for each visit during the six months. You can get care at no cost if you now get General Relief. Or, you can get care at no cost if after deductions, your monthly income and other resources are less than:

$ 901 for a family of one;
$1,001 for a family of two:
$1,201 for a family of three;
$1,401 for a family of four;
$1,601 for a family of five;
$1,701 for a family of six.

For hospital care, you must apply each time you go into a County hospital. Your application is valid for a stay of up to one month. The ATP worker will figure out what you must pay, if anything. You can get care at no cost if you now get General Relief. Or, you can get care at no cost if after deductions, your monthly income and other resources are less than:

$ 616 for a family of one;
$ 766 for a family of two:
$ 951 for a family of three;
$1,116 for a family of four;
$1,276 for a family of five;
$1,431 for a family of six.

To get ATP, you must use any medical benefits you have, such as private insurance or outpatient medicare. ATP will cover your “deductible” for private insurance, but doesn’t cover inpatient Medicare or Medi-Cal deductibles.

You Bring to Your ATP Appointment: The ATP worker will ask you questions about your family size, your income after deductions, and your other resources. If you can, bring the papers and documents listed below. But if you don’t have any of these, don’t worry. We’ll accept yoursworn statement as proof. Just ask to use our affidavit forms. Your ATP worker will help you fill them out. You may be asked to bring additional proof after the appointment.

Address and Identity: Driver’s license, ID card, utility bill, rent receipt, or a letter mailed to you at your address.
Income: Current pay stubs, or if you receive benefits, proof of the amount. For example, unemployment insurance or disability insurance statements. If self-employed, income tax return.
Deductions: Current taxes, medical, child care, support payments,transportation costs.
Resources: Current checking/savings statement and property statements;and bonds.

We may ask for other proof as well. If your income, other resources, or family size changes, you must report these changes by calling the center where you had your appointment.

If You Disagree: If the ATP worker tells you that you don’t qualify for ATP, or if you disagree with our fee, you may ask to meet with the worker’s supervisor. You have ten working days to do so.

APPOINTMENT REMINDER
Your appointment will be at one of the specified centers. When you make the appointment, enter the time and place below:
Date: _____________________________________
Phone: ____________________________________
Location: __________________________________

If you can’t keep the appointment, phone the ATP worker at the above number at once. If you miss the appointment (or if we deny your application), we will bill you for the full cost of your care. But you still have a chance to pay a low-cost fee for clinic care if you do so within seven days. The fee will be $40, $50, $55, $70 or $100 depending on where you receive your care.

COUNTY FOLLOW-UP
If you need to follow-up in with County, it is important to visit a County Hospital within the first few days after discharge from UCLA  for additional pain medication, to establish care with a primary care physician, and for specialty care follow-up (such as orthopedics, neurosurgery, etc....)
You must present to the Emergency Department at County and wait to be seen by a physician if you are not already registered. Please be advised that the wait time at County can be up to 12-24 hours. At that point, you will be registered into the County system and they will assist you in making your follow-up appointments. It may take from weeks to months from your initial visit to be seen by a specialist, so please register ASAP.
County, Free, and Low-Cost Clinics are also available for your general care needs. They rarely provide any specialized services, but are able to offer basic primary care needs.
We will provide a list of County Hospitals and some County, Free, and Low-Cost Clinics, however a comprehensive clinic list can be found at:
www.ladhs.org/
You may also dial 2-1-1 for County information.
