The Access Partnership (TAP)

A Johns Hopkins Medicine Charitable Care Program

For patients with no access to health insurance, accessing medically necessary specialty health care can be especially challenging. The Access Partnership – known as “TAP” – strives to fill the gap by helping eligible patients access qualifying specialty care from Johns Hopkins Medicine at no cost.

TAP’s mission is to improve access to effective, compassionate, evidence-based medical care for uninsurable patients with demonstrated financial need. Our program is not health insurance; it is a charitable care program for patients with no access to insurance through work, school, or public or private programs.

Patients are referred to TAP from Johns Hopkins-affiliated hospitals and participating community clinics in Baltimore.
