Payment Options

Families must inform us if they have any type of health insurance coverage from a health insurer, health care service plan, Medicaid or other state funded programs designed to provide health care coverage.

Families who are unable to pay their balance in full may qualify for financial assistance.

If a family does not have any type of health insurance coverage, they may be eligible for Medicaid or they may qualify for Charity Care, Discounted Payment or Self-Pay status.  El Paso Children’s Hospital Eligibility Representatives are able to provide families with an application for Medicaid. El Paso Children’s Hospital Eligibility Representatives are available on site to discuss options for monthly payment plans, to help you complete applications for State and/or Federal assistance programs, or to visit with you about the El Paso Children’s Hospital Financial Assistance Program.  You may schedule a visit with an Eligibility Representative over the phone or in person, Monday through Friday during normal business hours.  El Paso Children’s Hospital Eligibility Representatives can be reached at (915) 298-5444 ext. 43109.

Crime Victims Compensation

If your child is a victim of a crime, there may be financial assistance available to you. Victims of violent crime may suffer financial stress that is as devastating as their physical injuries and emotional trauma.  Crime victim compensation is a direct reimbursement to or on behalf of a crime victim for a wide variety of crime-related expenses, including medical costs, funeral and burial costs, expenses for mental health counseling, and lost wages or loss of support.  We have team members available to assist you.  You can reach them by calling (915) 242-8560.
