Is it acceptable to redact bank statements before mailing them to my healthcare provider? (Applying for financial assistance)

is it acceptable to redact bank statements when applying for financial assistance from a healthcare provider?

I’m applying for financial assistance through the FAP (Financial Assistance Program) offered by WellStar, my healthcare provider in Georgia. However, they require me to mail bank statements to help demonstrate need for financial assistance, as outlined in this paragraph from their website:

To be considered for the FAP, uninsured or underinsured patients must complete an application and disclose any sources of insurance and/or means of payment to establish proof of need. A completed FAP application includes all required supporting documents such as bank statements, tax returns and other income verification information to help Wellstar determine eligibility for full financial assistance (indigent care) or partial financial assistance (charity care).

Would blacking out the names of vendors/companies and leaving the dates/charges visible be acceptable, or would that increase my chances of getting denied assistance? There’s not anything nefarious in my statements, but I feel like it’s really none of their business what I spend my money on.
