The Process – How It Works

Applicants are required to provide a detailed explanation of their circumstance as well as documentation showing that they meet the qualifications to be accepted into the program. Income parameters are set to insure We Pay Copay, is assisting those in the most need.

 

Once accepted, a member of the program will receive a “bank” from which funds will be drawn to cover medical bills related to the specific event that triggered the hardship. The maximum available award to an applicant is $5,000.  We request that applicants only ask for what they need as a means to be able to spread our donations to additional families in need. 

 

Members of the program submit medical invoices to We Pay Copay. We Pay Copay will then pay the invoice directly and then deduct that amount from the remaining total of the member's bank. No funds, at any time, will be distributed directly to a program member.  If the remaining amount in the member’s We Pay Copay bank is not sufficient to cover the entirety of an invoice, all remaining funds will be used to pay as much of the invoice as possible.

 

Once a payment is made, the program member will receive a receipt showing payment of the invoice via their membership page. This page will also display the current total of the funds remaining in their account. Should the applicant state they are no longer in need of assistance any remaining funds will be returned to We Pay Copay and reassigned to help other families. If a member does not reach out to We Pay Copay for a period of one year, the account will be considered abandoned, and the remaining funds will be returned to We Pay Copay.
