GENERAL PAYMENT POLICIES

Patients are responsible for the cost of services received at The Methodist Hospitals. To assist you in meeting your financial obligations, Methodist will bill your insurance company. However, if your insurance company has not paid within 45 days, (as required by the State Insurance Board), the unpaid balance may become your responsibility.

SUMMARY OF PAYMENT OPTIONS

Patients can pay their portion of the bill(s) using the following:

  • Payment in full at the time of service. Make a Credit Card Payment
  • Payment within 30 days of the insurance payment, but no later than 60 days after discharge.
  • Up to six equal monthly payments (minimum payment $25.00) Request a payment plan
  • Pre-approved loan with payment arrangements up to 36 months at a 9% fixed interest rate.
  • Individuals with limited financial resources may be eligible for Government Programs or our Helping Heart program Financial Assistance Application
  • Individuals with no insurance may be eligible for a 45% discount.

Patients are responsible for all applicable co-payments, coinsurance, deductible, and non-covered charges; all such charges are due and payable within 30 days following insurance payment. Patients who are not covered under some type of contractual agreement (HMO, PPO, Commercial, Medicare, Medicaid, etc…) may be eligible for a self-pay discount.
