Discount Options
For Hospital Services & Clinic Services
Valley Medical Center recognizes the significant financial burden for patients without healthcare coverage or limited healthcare coverage. We offer uninsured patients a discount similar to the discount taken by our contracted insurance carriers and a prompt pay discount options for their remaining balance. Insured patients who do not have 100% insurance coverage will be offered prompt pay discount options for remaining balance after insurance payment.
