Good Faith Estimate
Attention Patients: Beginning January 1, 2022, you have the right to request a “Good Faith Estimate” (GFE) explaining how much your appointment may cost.
Good Faith Estimate
- Under the law, those who don’t have insurance or need financial assistance paying their bill have the right to request a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any services associated to your visit at our centers.
- Upon request, a Good Faith Estimate can be provided to you in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service. You can also ask your health care provider for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an appointment.
- If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.
- Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
Disclaimers:
- GFE is an estimate and subject to change.
- Patient’s right to initiate dispute resolution process.
- May be additional services.
- GFE is not a contract.

Insurance or no insurance, LCH will take care of you. We evaluate everyone to determine eligibility for discounted services. Our sliding scale fees are based on your income and family size. We don't turn anyone away due to inability to pay.
In some cases, the sliding fee discount can also apply to deductibles imposed by insurances. If you wish to apply for discounts, you will need to bring appropriate documentation of household income. You may apply for a discount at the front desk. LCH staff will be glad to discuss our fees with you. Please do not hesitate to inquire about the charges for services received. You will not be denied services due to inability to pay. Please note that certain select nonessential services, like teeth whitening, do not apply.
Review LCH’s sliding fee scale as of August 2021.
