Pay your bill

View our pay your bill page, select your region, to pay your bill conveniently and securely. You can also download statements and manage your accounts.

Cancellation fees

We understand you sometimes can’t make it to your planned appointments. You can avoid cancellation fees by letting us know when plans change. However, Optum requires a 24-hour cancellation notice for all scheduled appointments. Depending on your region, a fee may be charged if notice is not given, or it’s less than 24 hours in advance, so make sure to keep track the best you can and look out for reminder emails from us.

Are there any exceptions?

Yes! You won’t be charged for missed appointments caused by inclement weather and national emergencies (i.e. COVID-19).

Payment policy

Please read our requirements for keeping your account in good standing:

Financial services

If you are currently experiencing financial problems and need help paying your bills, we’re here to find a payment plan that works for you. Please reach out to our support team as soon as possible to discuss your circumstances, so we can get you on the right plan from the start.

Billing statements

Optum will send you monthly statements through the online portal. The first statement you will receive will be itemized and may include a health insurance claim form. Charges and payments for services received during the last few days before your billing date may appear on the following monthly statement.

If we are participating providers under your health plan, you will only receive a statement from us for non-covered services once your plan has processed your claim. If we are submitting claims to your insurance company for you, you will continue to receive a statement until your account is paid in full.

Optum Health fully complies with the No Surprise Act. We are committed to sharing with you information to best protect you from receiving a surprise medical bill.

If you are an uninsured or a self-pay patient, you have the right to request a good faith estimate of expected charges prior to receiving services. 

Urgent care billing

For former CareMount Medical urgent care locations:

Your visit will be billed as an “office visit.” It will not be billed as an “urgent care visit’ because we are not accredited as such.

The amount you pay (copay, coinsurance or deductible) may vary based on the type of health care professional caring for you today. Your care will be given by different team members, including:
