Need help
VCU Health is proud of its mission to provide quality care to all who need it. If you do not have health insurance and worry that you may not be able to pay in full for your care, we may be able to help. It is important that you let us know if you will have trouble paying your bill.
We provide financial assistance to patients based on their income, assets and needs. In addition, we may be able to help you get free or low-cost health insurance, or work with you to arrange a manageable payment plan.
We are making changes to our financial assistance and collection guidelines. For more information click here or call our Financial Counseling Call Center at (804) 828-0966.
Your COVID-19-related appointment, whether in person, virtual or a diagnostic COVID-19 test, will be covered by insurance. For visits unrelated to COVID-19, you may be responsible for a copay, coinsurance or deductible. Your out-of-pocket cost depends on your insurance plan. Please check with your insurance provider for details.
Financial counselors can help you to understand your hospital bill, apply for health coverage, renew your health coverage and update your insurance information.
Our goal is to decrease financial barriers to access to health care for patients in our community.
