At the January board meeting of the Pender Community Hospital, the board was in agreement to move forward with a more aggressive up-front collection policy and payment structure. New brochures will be provided to everyone presenting for treatment explaining the new guidelines. A letter will be mailed to all individuals who have an existing payment plan with the hospital to further inform them of this new structure. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the business office.

Pender Community Hospital will work with clients on an individual basis to help them set up payment arrangements. Please reference the following guidelines on self-pay balances.
