Is my insurance a participating insurance plan?
For a list of participating insurance plans, which includes Medicare and Medicaid, click here to be taken to the Participating Insurance Plans page. Because this list has frequent changes, please check with your insurance provider to make sure Morris Hospital is an in-network provider. It is also recommended you contact your provider’s office to verify accepted insurance plans.
Before visiting one of our locations, please check with your insurance carrier for specific benefits and coverage and to make sure Morris Hospital is an in-network provider.
How does urgent care get billed to my insurance?
Convenient Care (Diamond-Coal City) is billed similarly as a physician office visit, with any x-rays or rapid lab tests additional. Copays are requested at the time of the Convenient Care visit, with the amount of the copay varying depending on your specific health plan.
Immediate Care (Channahon & Morris) is billed as a hospital outpatient service rather than a physician’s office visit, meaning your deductible may apply depending on your insurance. X-ray, CT testing, ultrasound, or laboratory services may be ordered to assist the provider in making a diagnosis and would result in additional charges. If your health plan includes Morris Hospital & Healthcare Centers as a participating provider, a deposit will be requested toward your out of pocket expenses at the time of service, and the charges will be submitted to your health plan. If your health plan doesn’t include Morris Hospital as a provider, you may be required to pay a larger deductible or a greater portion of your bill because our services will be deemed “out of network” with your health plan. Be sure you understand your plan’s “out of network” options. Self-pay patients are asked for a $100 deposit at the time of immediate care service.
Do you offer sports physicals?
Walk-In Sports Physical Exams are available at Morris Hospital’s urgent care centers in Channahon, Diamond, and Morris.
Cost of the sports physicals is $50, and payment is due at the time of the physical. This is a quick, easy solution for those facing a time crunch, but these physicals don’t replace an annual wellness or health maintenance exam, as they are a limited exam focused only on the areas needed to determine the patient’s ability to participate safely in sports activities.
