At Cary Medical Center, we understand that the rising cost of healthcare is a serious concern for many patients and their families. Even fully insured patients can have a difficult time paying for deductibles and co-pays. In a report released by Price Waterhouse Coopers in 2006, research indicated that over that past three years, healthcare costs were fueled by a 43% increase in the use of services due to an aging population, unhealthy lifestyles, and consumer demand for new, more intensive medical treatments. Additional factors affecting the cost of healthcare included the increased cost of labor and higher priced technologies. While we cannot change the increased demands for healthcare, the price of technology, or the ages of our patients, we guarantee that we are looking at every way possible to better manage our operational expenses. Our patient billing team includes financial counselors and billing specialists who are committed to researching every option to help you meet the financial piece of your healthcare.
