Affordable Healthcare with Carolina Medicine
Americans who have no health insurance total about 45 million people. In addition, there are about 50 million people in this country who are under insured, often having policies that have high deductables that must be paid before the insurance starts covering medical treatment, and then only covering a percentage of the cost. Many of these people simply don't go to a Doctor except for emergencies.
At Carolina Medicine, our commitment is to help the people in our area who are lacking in medical insurance so that they can receive regular healthcare. We have developed a cash payment plan, in which we give patients a 50% discount when they pay for their medical care at the time of service.
We can do that for uninsured or under-insured people because when people pay us in full at the time of service, we save money on things like filing insurance claims, sending medical statements and collections. Basically, when people meet us halfway, we significantly reduce what we charge them for medical care.
