Financial Policy
We realize that for many these are difficult economic times. The goal of the Ness City Medical Clinic has always been to provide our patients with exceptional and compassionate medical care. We believe that outstanding medical service leads the way in helping to keep health care costs down by providing efficient and cost-effective care.
We request that co-payments be paid at the time of service. For balances after insurance payment, family statements are mailed out monthly. Payment is expected in full upon receipt of the statement. For our patients with financial difficulty, we do offer monthly payment arrangements. Please contact us to arrange a mutually agreeable payment plan.
We are happy to see patients who do not currently have health insurance as we understand the difficulty for many to obtain health insurance. We do however expect payment at the time of service if you do not have insurance.
