Navigating medical bills can be confusing especially with large health systems like McLaren that have multiple hospitals and physician groups. Luckily, McLaren offers a variety of payment options to make settling your bill quick and easy. In this article, I’ll outline the best ways to pay your McLaren Health Care bill by phone online, mail, or in person.
As a McLaren patient myself, I appreciate the flexibility they provide to suit different payment preferences. Whether you want to speak to a billing representative, utilize the online portal, or set up automatic monthly payments, McLaren has you covered. Read on to learn the various ways you can pay your McLaren bill and avoid late fees.
Pay by Phone
The quickest way to speak with a McLaren billing representative and pay your bill over the phone is to call the number listed on your printed statement Most McLaren hospitals have dedicated patient accounting phone numbers for billing inquiries and payments,
Some common McLaren Health Care billing phone numbers include:
- McLaren Bay Region: 1-800-591-8707
- McLaren Central Michigan: 1-800-591-8707
- McLaren Flint: 1-800-591-8707
- McLaren Oakland: 1-800-591-8707
When you call, select the “pay bill” option and have your McLaren account number ready. You can make a one-time payment or set up recurring payments using your debit/credit card or checking account details. The phone system is available 24/7 for your convenience.
Speaking with a live representative allows you to ask billing questions, get up-to-date account balances, and immediately confirm your payment.
Online Bill Pay
For fast electronic payment access anytime, McLaren provides an online bill pay portal. You can log in directly from their website and click “Pay Bill”.
After entering your McLaren account number, you can view your balance, make a one-time payment, set up recurring payments, and manage payment methods. Accepted online payment options include:
- Debit/credit card
- Electronic check
- HSA or FSA cards
I really like using the McLaren online portal for the instant payment confirmation and ability to store payment methods for easier repeat payments. You can also access billing statements and account history in the portal.
Recurring Auto-Pay
If you have an outstanding balance or want to set up monthly payments, consider enrolling in McLaren’s automatic payment system. This securely stores your payment details on file and automatically charges your card or withdraws from your bank account each month.
To enroll, contact the billing number for your McLaren hospital or log into the online portal and complete the auto-pay form. You’ll need to provide your account number, payment method, and amount to withdraw each month.
Recurring auto-pay gives you peace of mind knowing your bill is paid on time without any extra effort. You can cancel at any time if your payment method changes in the future.
Mail-In Payment
Although not as quick as electronic payments, sending a check or money order by mail is an option if you prefer to pay the traditional way.
Most McLaren hospitals provide a payment remittance coupon and mailing address right on your printed billing statement. Simply detach the coupon and enclose it with your check payment in the envelope.
Double check that your McLaren account number is written on the payment to ensure proper crediting. Allow 7-10 business days for mail delivery to avoid late fees.
In-Person Payment
Some McLaren hospitals and physician offices accept cash payments in person at their registration desks or billing offices.
Contact your specific McLaren facility to see if in-person payment is accepted and the hours available. This allows immediate payment posting if you prefer paying cash.
Be sure to bring your McLaren bill or account number so they can quickly locate your account and provide a receipt.
Avoid Late Fees with Prompt Payment
No matter which option you choose, be sure to pay your McLaren bill by the due date listed on your statement to avoid late fees or interest charges. Set payment reminders through your McLaren online account if that helps you remember.
If you have any questions about your McLaren bill or account balance, don’t hesitate to call the billing phone number. The representatives are extremely helpful and can explain charges, initiate payment plans, check insurance coverage, and more.
With multiple ways to pay your McLaren bill quickly and easily, medical payments don’t have to be a hassle. I’m grateful for the convenience McLaren provides through phone, online, mail, auto-pay, and in-person options.
