Florida Hospital DeLand not only knows health care, but they know times are tough.  Although the country is in a recession, attending to your health care need is still important. 

“We recognize the financial difficulty unexpected and expected medical problems can cause our patients,” said Nigel Hinds, Chief Financial Officer.  “We are here to assist patients in finding resources that may help pay their hospital bill, through different discount programs.”

Through their partner, City National Bank, Florida Hospital DeLand is offering patients affordable monthly payment plans that will help reduce the pressure of health care obligations. This program offers 0% interest rate to those who qualify.

The new program is based on the same concept that department store charge cards use: You make a minimum payment each month, but can pay off the entire balance if you wish. You will receive a monthly statement from City National Bank and send payments directly to them. 

If you would rather pay your bill completely, at one time, to eliminate any future financial worry, Florida Hospital DeLand offers a 44 percent discount to all transactions that are self pay and paid in full. 

Not insured? Florida Hospital DeLand has a non-insured 50 percent discount available for services through their exclusive Partner Program.   The program is free to anyone, insured or not.

“We want to make sure you receive the health care you need regardless of your ability to pay,” said Hinds.  “Any of these options can help patients and their families who are uninsured or who have a balance to pay after the insurance company has paid its portion.  Our financial department is happy to work with any patient to set up a payment plan.”

As the DeLand community hospital, Florida Hospital DeLand is looking out for its neighbors in every which way, whether it is to help achieve optimal health or ease the unexpected expense of medical bills. Florida Hospital DeLand is continually improving the patient experience – one patient at a time
