Are your out-of-pocket expenses for a medical incident over $2,500? The Karis Group’s Patient Advocacy is here to help! We walk you through the complex world of hospital billing. A personal Advocate will help and inform you along the way. He/she will discuss options and find the best way to make use of your available funds. We will work with the provider(s) to reach a solution for your unpaid medical bills.
Note: Patient Advocacy does not provide funds to pay for bills. Patient Advocacy is a best efforts service. Despite The Karis Group’s best efforts, some providers will not compromise to help resolve outstanding medical bills. The Karis Group is unable to provide Patient Advocacy service for prescriptions and bills for treatment of mental conditions or substance abuse. Other limitations and exclusions may apply.
To be eligible you must: be an active member of a benefit plan with Patient Advocacy at the time of the medical incident. You must get care for a single related medical issue at a hospital, emergency clinic or a surgical center. You must have an out-of-pocket balance (after network discounts and applicable benefits have been applied) that is over $2,500. Or, if you are scheduled for admission, the hospital or the physician must confirm that your out-of-pocket cost is likely to be over $2,500.
