The HEART Program is a remarkable and brilliant opportunity provided to Georgians by our elected officials. We are the only state in the nation which is afforded this opportunity to financially support our state’s rural hospitals – at no cost!

Help improve health care in our community by contributing to Dorminy Medical Center through the Georgia HEART rural hospital tax credit opportunity!

The Georgia General Assembly passed legislation that enables Georgia taxpayers receive a state income tax CREDIT for 100% of the amount they contribute to qualified rural hospital organizations (up to the limits set forth below). There is a cap of $60 million in available tax credits per year under the program. There are still plenty of credits left for 2025!

If you pay Georgia income taxes, you are eligible to receive a 100% state income tax credit for contributing to Dorminy Medical Center, as follows:

• From January 1 through June 30 of each taxable year, taxpayers are eligible to contribute up to $5,000 for individuals, $10,000 for married couples, and $10,000 for pass-through owners.
• On July 1 of each year, limits for individual and married filing joint taxpayers are waived. This means you can contribute as much as you would like, so long as you have the tax liability to support the contribution!
• On July 1 of each year, limits for pass-through entity owners are waived. This means you can contribute as much as you would like, so long as you have the tax liability – related to your pass-through ownership – to support the contribution!
• At any time during the year, a “C” Corporation or trust shall be allowed a 100% Georgia income tax credit for contributions to RHOs equal to the amount of the contribution, or 75% of the corporation or trust’s income tax liability, whichever is less.
