Billing Information & Financial Assistance
We understand that healthcare bills and health insurance claims can be confusing. We're here to help you understand your billing and payment options.
Pay Your Bill Online
Our Bill Pay Service allows you to securely submit payment for your Meriter Hospital, Clinics, or Meriter Laboratories bill online.
How Physicians and Specialists Bill
Bills you receive from Meriter Hospital are for hospital services only. Physicians bill separately for their services. If your treatment required the services of a radiologist, pathologist, anesthesiologist or any other medical specialist, they will also bill separately.
Clinic Facility Charge for Medicare Patients (Provider-based Billing)
Provider-based billing is another name for how Meriter bills Medicare for our clinics. We bill Medicare one charge for the facility, which covers the operating expenses of the clinic, and another charge for the physician/provider services. Regardless of what insurance you have, the combined charged amount is the same.
Financial Counselors
Meriter Hospital's Financial / Certified Application Counselors are located in the Patient Registration area of the hospital. They can help you with applications that may qualify you for government programs and financial assistance from UnityPoint Health – Meriter hospital.
