Children’s Application Eligibility Screenings for Shriners Hospitals for Children
An Application Screening is held the first Wednesday of each month at 1:00pm at the El Jebel Shrine Center, 4625 West 50th Avenue, Denver, CO 80212. The purpose of the screening is to determine whether the child’s medical condition is one that our hospitals can treat. You may make an appointment by calling the office at 303 455-3470. In addition to the monthly screenings at El Jebel’s office, the Medical Staff conducts periodic screenings for children outside the metro Denver area, in Grand Junction, Edwards, Avon, Loveland, Greeley, Grand County, Sterling, and Brush. Please contact us if you are interested in any of these screenings in your area.

Eligibility and Application
Children up to age 18 are eligible for care at Shriners Hospitals for Children if, in the opinion of the physicians at Shriners Hospitals for Children, there is a reasonable possibility they can benefit from the specialized services available. Acceptance is based solely on a child’s medical needs. A family’s income and insurance status are not criteria for a child’s acceptance as a patient.
For patients at Shriners Hospitals for Children, ability to pay or insurance coverage is never an issue. There is no charge for any care or services provided within Shriners Hospitals facilities.
