INDIGENT APPLICATION

VALENCIA COUNTY INDIGENT provides financial assistance to Valencia County residents for hospital and ambulance bills that are medically indigent and do not have medical insurance. A medically indigent person means a person who can normally support himself and his dependents on present income and assets, but is unable to pay the costs of the medical care administered. An application must be completed and eligibility requirements have to be met. Eligibility is based on residency, income, assets, etc. A person must apply within ninety (90) days from the date of service. This program is confidential.

VALENCIA COUNTY LOSS PREVENTION PROGRAM is responsible for providing management of claims processing, safety and loss initiatives. Valencia County has a Loss Prevention Committee, which is comprised of an employee from each department. The committee reviews accidents and makes recommendations to supervisors and staff for a safe and healthy working environment.
