Foundations to Individuals

Here at GCG Surgery Center, we are aware of the financial burdens that families face when they are caring for somebody with special needs. Because we are committed to helping you, we've compiled a list of resources (financial aid, grants, foundations, scholarships) that may help offset some of your health care costs.
