GUIDELINES

Guidelines At A Glance

St. Anthony provides patient care to a growing number of uninsured and underinsured patients. Patients are responsible for a greater burden of their healthcare costs through growing out-of-pocket deductibles that many insurance plans have implemented. Because many patients lack the financial resources to meet these costs, or are unable to secure insurance, St. Anthony has developed financial policies that seek fair and equitable payment based on the ability to pay. St. Anthony Regional Hospital and Nursing Home strives to meet the needs of all patients regardless of their ability to pay and is committed to treating all patients with equity, dignity, and compassion.

Our annual wellness checks provide preventive services, counseling, education and disease screening, based on your gender or age.
