克利夫兰诊所提出共同付费的付款计划, 帮助无法预付费用的病人。 Cleveland Clinic introduces payment plans for copays, aiding patients who can't pay upfront.

自6月1日起,克利夫兰诊所更新了非紧急情况预约的共同付费政策。 Cleveland Clinic has updated its copay policy for non-emergency appointments, effective June 1st. 最初,病人在看医生之前必须支付共同付费,或者要面对预约的重新安排。 Initially, patients had to pay copays before seeing a doctor or face appointment rescheduling. 现在,那些无力支付的人可以制定0%的利息付款计划。 Now, those unable to pay can set up a 0% interest payment plan. 该诊所旨在平衡增加的患者费用和无补偿的护理,同时继续向有需要的人提供财政援助。 The clinic aims to balance rising patient costs and uncompensated care, while still providing financial assistance to those in need. 2023年,克利夫兰诊所向10万多名病人提供了2.61亿多美元的财政援助。 In 2023, Cleveland Clinic provided over $261 million in financial aid to more than 100,000 patients.
