Patient Financial Assistance
The Bergen New Bridge Medical Center’s mission is to ensure that all patients receive emergency and medically necessary hospital services regardless of their ability to pay. Financial assistance and discount programs are available for eligible patients. These programs cover medically necessary hospital services. However, these programs may not cover physician, radiology interpretation, or anesthesiology fees.
To apply for financial assistance, you can schedule an appointment with our Financial Assistance Representatives at CentralScheduling@newbridgehealth.org or by calling 201.225.7130. Our team will review and process the financial assistance application and advise you of the best options for you and your family.
If you do not qualify for Medicaid or Charity Care, contact our Patient Financial Services department at PFS@newbridgehealth.org or call 201.967.4200 for more information on the Compassionate Care Self-Pay discounts application.
