Support this work
Cobijo Health is free for every patient, and always will be. It's an independent nonprofit project, built in the open and seeking fiscal sponsorship. Here's how you can help us reach more people.
Give
Your support pays for the essentials — keeping the tool online, refreshing our data on every California hospital's financial-assistance policy, and translating it into the languages our patients actually speak.
We're finalizing our fiscal sponsor so gifts are tax-deductible and go directly to the mission. Financial giving opens here soon. In the meantime, the ways below help just as much — and you can email [email protected] if you'd like to give now.
Other ways to help
Spread the word
The patients who need this most are the hardest to reach. Share cobijohealth.org with a clinic, a case worker, a promotora, a community group, or anyone who helps people with medical bills.
Join our founding board
We're looking for advisors and volunteer reviewers — legal, healthcare-access, or community-trust experience especially welcome, and anyone willing to verify one state's charity-care rules once a year. Email [email protected].
Volunteer or partner
We especially need native speakers to review our translations across 10 languages, and partners — clinics, legal-aid groups, community organizations — who serve patients facing medical bills.
Star or contribute on GitHub
The tool is free and open-source, and we're publishing the dataset state by state. Star or contribute to the project on GitHub — it's a genuine public good, and every bit of visibility helps patients find it.
