Patient Portal
SOMC’s Patient Portal is an application that allows patients to access portions of their electronic health records, including laboratory and medical imaging results securely and conveniently from any computer or device that connects to the internet.
Care for All in Need
If you are unable to pay for medical care, we may be able to help. SOMC participates in the Ohio Hospital Care Assurance Program (HCAP), which provides free basic medically necessary care to eligible patients. We also provide charity care to patients who are unable to pay through our SOMC Caring Program. SOMC can happily assist you in applying for these programs.
Gift Gallery
If you need something special, our staff and volunteers of the SOMC Gift Gallery are happy to help you. Conveniently located in the main lobby, Shoppers may choose from a variety of gifts including fresh flowers, balloons, figurines, home décor items, candles and lotions, as well as fashion clothing and jewelry.
