AMORY – Through a memorandum of understanding with the City of Amory regarding the 340B plan, North Mississippi Medical Center Gilmore-Amory will use savings to help cover the cost of uncompensated and unreimbursed care for uninsured and low-income patients.

The main benefit of the program, in my opinion, is that it helps the hospital provide outpatient drugs and services to low-income, uninsured and indigent individuals of our community.”
