Paying cash: what to do
- Ask whether the clinic is hospital-owned and bills a separate facility fee; independent offices usually do not.
- Ask for the self-pay price by visit level and which level is typical for your reason for coming, since the level is set after the visit.
- Community health centers (federally qualified health centers) charge on a sliding fee scale based on income, whether or not you have insurance.
