How to Pay Your Inova Bill Online: A Step-by-Step Guide

Paying your medical bills can be a headache, but it doesn’t have to be! Inova makes paying your bill quick and easy through their online patient portal, MyChart.

As someone who has used Inova’s services and paid my bills through MyChart, I wanted to share a step-by-step guide on how to pay your Inova bill online This will walk you through signing up for MyChart, understanding your billing statement, and submitting a payment.

Sign Up for a MyChart Account

The first step is to sign up for a MyChart account if you don’t already have one. This is Inova’s patient portal that gives you access to your health information, appointments, and billing.

You can sign up by going to Inova’s MyChart website and clicking on “Sign Up Now”. It only takes a few minutes to enter your personal details and create a username and password.

Once your account is created, you can download the MyChart mobile app to access it on the go. I like having the app on my phone so I get notifications whenever a new bill is available.

Understand Your Billing Statement

After logging into your MyChart account, you can view your billing statements under the Billing tab. Here you’ll see a summary of what you owe, your account balance, and billing history.

Inova provides a detailed breakdown of each charge on your statement. This includes the date of service, description of the procedure or test, and the amount owed. Reviewing the charges helps you understand exactly what you’re being billed for.

If you have health insurance, the statement will show any amounts covered by insurance and what you are responsible for paying. You can also view explanations of benefits from your insurer.

Submit a Payment

To pay your Inova bill through MyChart, click on the “Pay Now” link for the billing statement you want to pay. This will take you to the payment page.

You can make a one-time payment by entering your credit/debit card details and the amount you want to pay. MyChart also gives the option to set up recurring payments or an automated payment plan.

I like to use the automated payment plan so I don’t have to worry about remembering to pay each month. You can select how much to pay each month and the payment date.

Once you enter your payment info and submit, you’ll receive a confirmation email from Inova. The amount paid will be reflected in your account balance within 1-2 business days.

And that’s it! Paying your Inova bill through MyChart only takes a few minutes. It’s so much faster than mailing in paper checks or calling in payments over the phone.
