A small payment amount, referred to as a visit deposit, will be required from uninsured patients at the time of service. Patients having multiple visits will be required to pay a deposit for each visit.
This is only a deposit, patients will be responsible for all remaining balances and will receive a statement for these balances.
In most cases MUSC Health will act on your behalf to understand the reason for the denial or coverage decision. However, patients are responsible for any charges not paid/covered by their insurance carrier.
Many insurance plans may pay for health care services provided in an outpatient hospital setting differently than those provided in a physician’s office. In a hospital based clinic, your insurance may require that you meet your annual deductible and/or require that you pay a percentage of the bill. You should check with your insurance carrier if you have any questions regarding your financial responsibility.
No, payment arrangements are for care received in the past. Copay/coinsurance is an agreement between you and your insurance carrier and is expected to be paid at point of service.
Please contact our Customer Service Department at 843-792-2311 or 800-598-0624 if you are unable to pay your bill in full. Our representatives can assist you in determining the right solution in meeting your financial responsibility.
