1Opinion of the Court
SILAK, Justice.
This is an appeal from a denial of medical indigency benefits. Adam Ackerman (Acker-man) was involved in an accident requiring emergency hospitalization and incurred more than $8,000 in medical expenses. Ackerman applied for medical indigency assistance from Jefferson County (the County) and the Jefferson County Board of County Commissioners (Commissioners) denied the application. The sole issue is whether Ackerman is medically indigent. We hold that he is not medically indigent and affirm the decision of the Commission.
