Understanding Your Bill
Health insurance bills and claims can be very confusing. We are here to help you understand the billing process and to assist you in correcting any errors made by your insurance company or errors with your bill. ER Now is committed to assisting you with any issues that may arise from your insurance carrier regarding the services that you receive.
ER Now is a licensed emergency facility, and as such, we bill accordingly. If you have insurance, two claims will be sent to your insurance company for your visit: one for the facility charge (Procare Wichita Falls llc) and one for the physician charges (Procare Emergency Physicians Wichita Falls). Ultimately, your insurance company dictates what your out-of-pocket expense for an emergency room visit will be.
- Emergency services are to be paid based on your in-network coverage, regardless of ER Now's relationship with your insurance provider. This safeguards you so you are not searching for an in-network provider when you need care now. Insurance Code law can be found here.
- If your insurance company incorrectly processed your claim as out-of-network, contact our billing department. We will work with you to file an appeal. However, as the patient, you are instrumental in helping us resolve any issues. We encourage you to also contact your insurance company. Insurance companies must abide by the law and reimburse claims to the degree specified by your health insurance plan.
- The appeals process takes time, but it should be initiated as soon as you discover a problem. If an issue arises, contact us immediately to understand how the claim was processed and what you can do to help resolve the issue.
IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS, PLEASE CONTACT OUR PATIENT ADVOCATE AT:
(469) 301-0816 or billing@ernowwichitafalls.com
If you received a bill for a visit prior to March 5, 2023, please contact (832) 653-3200.
