Insurance

We welcome all private insurance plans.

STAT Specialty Hospital is a licensed Freestanding Emergency Medical Care Facility; we function just like a hospital-based emergency room, and we charge rates comparable to a hospital emergency room and may charge a facility fee. This facility (or a physician providing medical care at this facility) is an out-of-network provider for the patient’s health benefit plan provider network. While we are an out-of-network facility, all insurance carriers are required by State and Federal law to pay in-network benefits for any member needing emergency medical treatment. The state of Texas empowers you to use a prudent layperson standard when considering what constitutes an emergency.

By taking the time to review your insurance policy, you will find out your co-pay and if you have deductibles, co-insurance, or anything else that might fall under your responsibility. This will help you make educated decisions when seeking medical care.

STAT Specialty Hospital shall provide to each patient, without regard to the individual’s ability to pay, an appropriate medical screening, examination, and stabilization within the facility’s capability, including ancillary services routinely available to the facility to determine whether an emergency medical condition exists and any necessary stabilizing treatment.

• STAT Specialty Hospital is a Licensed, Free-Standing, independently owned Emergency Room.
• STAT Specialty Hospital is not a Clinic or Urgent Care Facility.
• STAT Specialty Hospital charges rates comparable to a hospital emergency department, including facility fees.
• STAT Specialty Hospital is not a participating provider in any health benefit plan or network.
• There may be three separate bills for services rendered, one for the Emergency Room (facility), one for the Physician, and one from Rad Partners if imaging was performed.
• You may find a list of STAT Specialty Hospital’s Facility and Observation fees in our Price Transparency chargemaster files.
• Your out-of-network payment responsibility may be higher than an in-network option.
• Texas Insurance law states that if a condition is deemed a medical emergency, insurance will pay in accordance with a plan’s benefits for the services at the in-network benefit level, but not all emergency room services are medical emergencies. STAT Specialty Hospital will work on your behalf with appeals to your insurance company to maximize your well-deserved benefits.
