If you have a Current Amount & a Total Amount, leave both. If you are on a payment arrangement, include that information.
Appointments are generally scheduled every other week - a very limited amount based on administrator availability and funding.
Leave ALL of the requested info, those who don't are the very last to be considered for appointments.
Follow up regularly, this is how to be placed on the priority list in case of canceled, no shows or new appointments. Those that follow up are the 1st to be called when new appointments are available.
* No Show/No Call for scheduled appointment results in ineligibility for the priority list and are last for call backs in the future.

Memorial does not have emergency funds for rapid/instant payment for any reason. Memorial does not provide funds for any other type of assistance such as: rent/food/clothing/hotel/medication/gift cards/vouchers/gas or any other types of bills.
You are encouraged to leave the required information at any time and to follow up regularly. If you don't hear back from someone to schedule an appointment, the admin has no availability, the appointments are full or funding for that month is out. Follow up regularly leaving your updated information again, at the end of any given week for a possible appointment at the next availability.
This information is how the priority list is made to set the next round of appointments.
