How do I start a letter requesting financial aid to the Los Angeles Fire Department?

I was recently taken to the ER, and my bill just came....$1114.25. That's too much for an unemployed college student still living at his parents house. I received financial aid for the medical bill, but apparently it doesn't cover the EMT ride.





Any advice on how to start or what to include in this financial aid/ payment plan letter would be highly appreciated.|||First, you call them and find out if they do discount at all for financial hardship reasons. Make sure you mention yourself as a unemployed college kid who is willing to send copies of financial records as proof. If they do, send over copies of your tax info with a letter stating your request for a financial hardship consideration.|||Just request a payment plan and the pay what you can per month. You can also try to get it reduced.
