Texas Law Ensures Your Insurance Covers Emergency Care
PrimeCare Emergency Center is open 24/7, including holidays, to provide immediate medical attention when you need it most. Even though we are an out-of-network provider, Texas law requires insurance companies to cover your emergency care after your deductible is met. You can expect expert treatment at our state-certified Arlington facility with absolutely no wait time.
Insurance & Your Rights
Clear information on coverage and billing transparency
ou should feel as confident about your healthcare rights as you do about the care you receive. Our 24/7 Arlington facility provides expert medical attention while making sure you understand exactly how insurance and billing work.
Healthcare Options for New, Existing & Uninsured Arlington Patients
We are responsible for offering medical screening examinations to all of our patients, regardless of their ability to pay for the treatment. In case the screening exam depicts the patient is in danger or at risk of further serious complications, then our team is required to stabilize the patient immediately without putting their ability to pay for the treatment as a prime concern.
A medical emergency involves a medical condition consisting of severe pain that would allow a layperson having average knowledge of health and medicine to assume the condition, injury, or illness is one that requires immediate medical attention and may cause one of the following life-threatening complications:
- Severe body impairments
- Putting the patient’s health in grave danger
- Serious organ dysfunction
- Critical disfigurement
- Harsh implications to the health of a fetus in pregnant women
Our commitment to your health
Consumer Liability
For any services available at PrimeCare Emergency Center, patients/guarantors are required to pay all charges associated with those services. We will gladly accept a patient’s verified insurance card at the time of service or when filing a claim on their behalf.
Insurance claims are usually filed within the 30 days of a patient’s visit. In case the patient’s insurance company hasn’t paid the claim within 90 days, then the patient/guarantor is required to pay all outstanding balances.
Statements
An itemized claim is generally filed on behalf of insured patients. Once your claim has been processed successfully, your insurance company is responsible for providing an itemized Explanation of Benefits. On the other hand, patients that paid in cash or are uninsured, you will be given an itemized statement of the charges.
- Copies of Records - If a third-party entity or a consumer asks for more than two copies of the medical records, we will charge an affordable fee for every extra copy after that.
