At Marias Medical
Center we understand the health care bills you receive may be
confusing. Below is information, including phone numbers for
questions on the types of bills you may receive depending upon the service that was
provided.
Marias
Medical Center has the philosophy of working for you in times of health
care needs and with you when payment is due. Medical bills are not
usually expected and come during times of sudden illness. It is
important to communicate early with the hospital to ensure receipt of
insurance information and payment arrangement options. Marias
Medical offers to help with insurance, payment arrangements and now
electronic transfers and credit card payments. Through the
assistance of Wells Fargo Bank (formally Norwest Bank), Marias Medical
Center can process direct transfers on a monthly basis. This
could be through your checking, savings, credit or debit card accounts
from banks that are not Wells Fargo Banks, as well as making payment
via credit and debit cards. This convenience is due to two programs: IC
Verify allows credit and debit card transactions to be handled quickly
and Wells Fargo ACH allows the setup of automatic
monthly payments that can consistently be made on specific days of the
month. These are easily arranged through the business office (please
contact Debbie at 406-434-3245).

HILL-BURTON
The question often comes up
regarding cash settlements and receiving discounts. No cash
discounts can be given unless the benefit will be extended to all
patients. This is the requirement of Medicare rules and regulations.
However, Marias Medical Center has an application process that will allow
the write-off of a portion of 100% of the bill for qualified applicants.
This process is through that use of Hill-Burton legislation, which allowed
funding of small rural hospitals such as ours, to construct medical
facilities. In return for the grant, the facility makes available to
those who qualify, discounted or free medical services. This allow
people who cannot afford hospital care the opportunity to receive care
without the financial burden. If you have any questions regarding
your account please contact Debbie at 434-3245. If you have
questions regarding Marias Healthcare please call 434-3100.
