Sun Health Charitable Services

Consistent with our mission as a community-based, non-profit healthcare provider, Sun Health is one of the west Valley’s leading providers of charitable services. These services include direct patient care as well as a variety of community service programs to help meet the needs of area residents and visitors.

Charitable patient care can include emergency, urgent and acute services for those with limited incomes. For Medicare beneficiaries who meet income guidelines, the Sun Health C.A.R.E. program allows for reduction/elimination of hospital co-payments/deductibles. In addition, many patients receiving obstetrical services through the network are AHCCCS beneficiaries who otherwise would have limited or no access to needed care.

Examples of how our non-profit network supplements community needs include, but are not limited to: presentations of health-education classes and support groups, health screenings, community speaking engagements, support of local “Meals on Wheels,” a free food-distribution service as well as vision and legal services for seniors, extensive volunteer support, a communitywide flu-shot program, distribution of health-related publications, operation of a health-information phone line plus a website with an online health library and medication index.
