Health Insurance
Scenic Mountain Medical Center accepts all major health insurance plans and managed care programs. Additionally, no one will be denied necessary medical care due to lack of insurance or inability to pay. However, if you are uninsured you may be asked to pay a deposit when you’re admitted or when you register for an outpatient procedure.
Health Insurance Marketplace
Scenic Mountain Medical Center provides free assistance throughout the year to individuals who need help gaining access to health care services, or with paying medical bills. This includes helping individuals apply for coverage on the Health Insurance Marketplace.
