Financial assistance and Hospital Discounted Care

We are dedicated to improving lives by providing the most advanced, highest-quality medical care with an exceptional patient experience. And we believe no one should ever be denied access to necessary health care because they cannot pay or do not have insurance. Beginning with billing transparency, estimates and financial assistance, UCHealth offers many options to help qualifying patients afford their medical care and ease their financial burden.

Hospital Discounted Care (HDC) was created by ​​House Bill (HB) 21-1198​. Patients who are at or below 250% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines (FPG) are eligible for Hospital Discounted Care. It limits the amounts that low-income patients can be billed for health care services at hospitals and emergency rooms, and it limits amounts billed from providers who work at hospitals and emergency rooms. Hospitals must give patients the chance to apply for discounted care when they receive services at the hospital.

Questions about your bill?

Our customer care team is available Monday-Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. to assist you. We also want to thank you for your patience while we deal with the challenge of COVID-19.

If you need help paying your medical bill, we’re here for you. Payment plans, loans and financial assistance are available if you can’t pay the balance in full.

Beginning January 1, 2022, new protections are in place for “surprise billing.” Find out more.

Insurance and pricing

UCHealth locations make pricing information for uninsured patients available for the most common health care services to help consumers understand and anticipate their financial responsibilities and make informed choices about the care they receive. If you have insurance, please select the insured patients link below.

If you are covered by health insurance

UCHealth strongly encourages you to consult with your health insurer to determine accurate information about your financial responsibility for a particular health care service provided at a UCHealth facility.

If you are not covered by health insurance

Please contact the facility to discuss payment options prior to receiving a health care service from a UCHealth facility, since prices for health care services posted on this site may not reflect the actual amount of your financial responsibility.

If you are shopping for health insurance

Shopping for health insurance can be challenging, as there are many options and each individual’s and family’s needs and budget are unique.

UCHealth cannot recommend which coverage you should choose, but we encourage you to work with an insurance broker to compare plans available in your area.

As you shop for health insurance, some things you should consider include:

  • Identify what type of care you anticipate you may need (e.g., hospitalization only, outpatient care only, primary care, etc.).
  • Identify where you want to get your care (consider both hospitals and doctors).
  • Review the insurance plans accepted by UCHealth.
  • Be sure to ask questions, either with your broker or at your doctor’s office. There are many plans that UCHealth does not accept.
    • To confirm if your insurance provider or specific plan is contracted with any of our facilities, contact your insurance provider and your clinic to confirm network status.
  • Learn more about the Affordable Care Act at http://www.healthcare.gov/.

Billing and financial assistance transparency

UCHealth is always focused on our mission of improving lives, and we’re proud to see all patients.

UCHealth is a Certified Application Assistance Site, providing additional resources to help eligible patients apply for Medicaid, Hospital Discounted Care (HDC), and other services, including our extensive financial assistance services. And as high-deductible insurance plans have become more common, increasing the number of patients who have trouble paying their bills, we have extended resources to assist those who have health insurance.

Our billing outreach is a thorough process that involves letters, phone calls and financial counselors to help you understand your financial assistance options.

  • 1st HDC financial assistance letter
  • 2nd financial assistance letter
  • 1st statement
  • 3rd financial assistance letter
  • 2nd statement
  • Phone call
  • 4th financial assistance letter
  • 3rd statement
  • 5th financial assistance letter
  • 2nd phone call
  • Final notice
  • 6th financial assistance letter
  • 7th financial assistance letter
  • Presumptive eligibility for financial assistance conducted. If a patient is determined incapable of paying their balance, there is no referral to a collection agency.

182 days: If eligible, referral to collection agency.
240-270 days: Collection agency sends notice of debt, additional letters and makes phone calls.
270 days: Legal review and lawsuit considered.

* This process is for uninsured patients and those who opt in for Hospital Discounted Care (HDC). Those with insurance have a similar process but without the HDC financial assistance letters.

Our collections practices are similar to those of hospitals and health systems both in Colorado and across the nation. Like other providers, we depend on reimbursements to be able to provide health care to all and support our employees.


Separate bills to cover your care

Many providers who work in UCHealth facilities are considered “hospital-based” providers. This means that we are required to bill separately for facility and provider charges.

As a result, you may see 2 bills for some services.

Hospital/facility bills may include:

  • Nurses and certified nursing assistants
  • Housekeeping staff
  • Pharmacists
  • IT equipment and staff
  • Social workers and behavioral health teams
  • Security
  • Inpatient room charges
  • Operating room charges
  • Special services (for example, radiology or lab tests ordered by your provider)
  • Therapy (for example, physical-, speech-, occupational-, radiation-, or cardiology therapy)
  • Meals

Physician bills may include:

  • Physician services (inpatient or outpatient)
  • Laboratory
  • Anesthesia
  • Radiology
  • Ambulance
  • Pathology
  • Diagnostic test interpretation
  • Specialty professional services

You may also be charged separately for consultations if your primary care provider or attending physician spoke with a specialist (such as a radiologist or pathologist) about your treatment or test results.

Billing fraud alert: 3rd-party companies

Some 3rd party companies may try to collect payments claiming to be on behalf of UCHealth. For your safety, please do not share any personal information, logins, account numbers or passwords with these companies – they do not represent UCHealth. The most secure way to pay your bill is through UCHealth’s online bill pay service, our mobile app, or by mailing your payment.

UCHealth has partnered with Bank of America and Zelle to enhance our refund process. If you have received an email from either Zelle or Bank of America, this is not a scam or fraud. Please note, you will not receive a phone call from Zelle related to a UCHealth refund. You may visit bankofamerica.com/online-banking/zelle-faqs/ for information regarding the Zelle process with Bank of America.
