About
4A PROGRAM SERVICE -CHARITY, UNINSURED, UNDERINSURED AND INDIGENT CARE: IN THE 1800'S ATLANTA'S INDIGENT SICK HAD NO PLACE TO GO TO RECEIVE MEDICAL TREATMENT FOR ILLNESS OR INJURY. THEREFORE, A DRIVE WAS BEGUN TO BUILD GRADY MEMORIAL HOSPITAL (GRADY). ON JUNE 1, 1892, GRADY ADMITTED ITS FIRST PATIENT. AS OF TODAY, GRADY CONTINUES TO BE THE SAFETY NET HOSPITAL FOR THE UNINSURED AND UNDERINSURED CITIZENS OF FULTON AND DEKALB COUNTIES AND THE STATE OF GEORGIA. AS THE LARGEST SAFETY NET HOSPITAL IN THE STATE AND ONE OF THE LARGEST IN THE COUNTRY, ITS MISSION IS (1) TO PROVIDE MEDICAL SERVICES TO UNINSURED, UNDERINSURED, OR INDIGENT PATIENTS; (2) TO PROVIDE AN OPEN ACCESS POLICY FOR RESIDENTS OF FULTON AND DEKALB COUNTIES REGARDLESS OF THEIR ABILITY TO PAY; (3) AND TO PROVIDE A PROVISION FOR SIGNIFICANT UNCOMPENSATED INDIGENT AND CHARITY CARE. DURING 2018, GRADY PROVIDED CARE TO MORE THAN 125,067 UNDER AND UNINSURED PATIENTS WHICH REPRESENT APPROXIMATELY 68% OF ITS TOTAL PATIENTS WITH ABOUT 656,717 PATIENT ENCOUNTERS, COSTING APPROXIMATELY $574M. GRADY RECEIVES SOME REIMBURSEMENT FROM FULTON AND DEKALB COUNTIES, MEDICAID, AND SOME FUNDING FROM THE STATE OF GEORGIA'S INDIGENT CARE TRUST FUND (INCLUDING FEDERAL MATCHING FUNDS) TO HELP SUPPORT THE COSTS OF CARING FOR SO MANY IN THE REGION. GRADY HAS BEEN AND CONTINUES TO BE SIGNIFICANTLY CHALLENGED BY THE FINANCIAL BURDEN OF PROVIDING SO MUCH FREE CARE TO THE REGION.
