About Us
For more than 100 years, York Hospital has provided compassionate, world-class care to the communities we call home.
Hours of Operation
Monday – Friday: 8:00 a.m. – 4:30 p.m.
By appointment only.
Call (207) 351-2345 to schedule.
York Hospital’s Health Care Help Center is an easily accessible service where new and established patients (and even community members) can find answers to questions about their health care path. Our experts will be happy to provide caring support and guidance in a comfortable, confidential environment.
The Health Care Help Center is located in the lower level of the Henry Warner Building, 16 Hospital Drive on the York campus. Visits are by appointment only, so call (207) 351-2345 to set up a time to meet with our team.
Our Care Access Nurse is here to guide you through the healthcare system and improve your access to care services. That includes explaining the different services York Hospital offers, helping you find primary care and specialty providers, providing clinical guidance, and answering your questions about follow-up care. If you’re here seasonally or on vacation, we can also explain your care options, and if you’re unable to reach your provider’s office about a particular concern, we can help.
There are many programs, services, and resources offered by the hospital and community that can help improve your quality of life — and our licensed social worker is happy to connect you to them! This can include:
Our Prescription Assistance Navigator is ready to ease your mind about the added costs of prescription medications. Our Prescription Assistance Program offers patients information and help lowering prescription drug costs. We can educate you about pharmaceutical company assistance programs, state and federal programs (including Medicare Part D), and lost-cost generic drug programs.
We understand the insurance marketplace can be challenging to navigate. But our team is here to help — educating about federal and state insurance plan options and assisting with online enrollment. If you want help navigating insurance, reach out to us at: getcovered@aliveinlondon.com.
Please note, while we can assist Maine residents with Marketplace, Medicare, and Medicaid, we’re only able to assist New Hampshire residents with Medicaid. If you live in New Hampshire and are seeking Marketplace or Medicare coverage (or someone local to assist you), visit healthcare.gov and medicare.gov.

Looking to update or reapply for insurance? Here are some dates to look out for.
Open enrollment for Medicare begins October 15, 2024 and ends December 7, 2024. This period is for anyone who currently has Medicare and wishes to change plans for the next year.
Open enrollment for the marketplace begins November 1, 2024 and ends January 15, 2025.
If you missed the deadline for enrollment, you may be eligible for special enrollment.
If you’ve been notified that it is time to renew your Medicaid, return the renewal form that you received in the mail or renew online.
If you’ve been notified that you no longer qualify for Medicaid and do not have access to insurance through an employer, you can enroll online for a plan through the Health Insurance Marketplace.
Remember these important dates — and if you’re new to Medicare, consider attending an informative seminar from Southern Maine Agency on Aging.
If you need help finding affordable healthcare, use these resources to get started.
If you’re a resident of Maine, find affordable coverage for you and your family at CoverME.gov — the website for the Maine Health Insurance Marketplace. If you’re a New Hampshire resident, visit Healthcare.gov.
If you’re a resident of Maine, check out MaineCare, which helps cover medical and preventative healthcare costs. If you're a New Hampshire resident, explore your options on the Medicare website.
