Who qualifies for a reduced state application fee?
A qualifying patient that has a financial hardship may be qualified for a waiver of the $50 registration fee.
You are considered to have a verified financial hardship if you are a recipient of MassHealth or Supplemental Security Income (SSI), or your household income does not exceed 300% of the federal poverty level for your family size.
