This statement will be presented to RHMG Director of Patient Accounts or designee for review and final determination as to the sliding fee percentage.

If a patient verbally expresses an unwillingness to pay or vacates the premises without paying for services, the patient will be contacted in writing regarding their payment obligations. If the patient does not make effort to pay or fails to respond within 60 days, this constitutes refusal to pay. At this point in time, RHMG can explore options not limited, but including referring the account to outside collections.
