Therefore, we strive to treat patients with respect and with full recognition of human dignity. Decisions regarding health care treatment will not be based on race, creed, sex, national origin, age, disability, or sources of payment. As a patient of a Texas Health Facility: 1. You have the right to a reasonable response to your request and need for treatment or service, within the Facility’s capacity, its stated mission, and applicable laws and regulations. 2. You have the right to be informed about which physicians, nurses and other health care professionals are responsible for your care. 3. You have the right to the information necessary for you to make informed decisions, in consultation with your physician, about your medical care including information about your diagnosis, the proposed care and your prognosis in terms and a manner that you can understand before the start of your care. You also have the right to take part in developing and carrying out your plan of care. 4. You have the right to consent to or refuse medical care, to the extent permitted by law, and to be told of the risks of not having the treatment and other treatments which may be available. 5. You have the right to reasonable access to care. Although the Facility respects your right to refuse treatments offered to you, the Facility does not recognize an unlimited right to receive treatments that are medically ineffective or non-beneficial. 6. You have the right to care that is considerate and respectful of your personal values and beliefs. The Facility strives to be considerate of the ethnic, cultural, psychosocial, and spiritual needs of each patient and family. The Facility acknowledges that care of the dying patient includes care with dignity and respect, management of pain and consideration for the patient’s and family’s expression of grief. 7.

You have the right to have your family take part in your care decisions with your permission. 9. You have the right, to the extent permitted by law, to have your legal guardian, next of kin, or a surrogate decision maker appointed to make medical decisions on your behalf in the event you become unable to understand a proposed treatment or procedure, are unable to express your wishes regarding your care, or you are a minor. The person appointed has the right, to the extent permitted by law, to exercise your rights as a patient on your behalf. 10. You and your appointed representative have the right to take part in ethical questions that arise during your care. 11. You have the right to communicate with family, friends and others while you are a patient in the Facility unless restrictions are needed for therapeutic effectiveness.

As a patient, it is your responsibility to: 1. Provide correct, complete information about your medical condition and any past or current medical treatment. 2. Ask questions or acknowledge when you do not understand the treatment course or care decision. 3. Follow the treatment plan recommended by your physician and other health care professionals. If you choose not to follow your treatment plan, you are responsible. 4. Discuss with your doctor and nurse what to expect regarding pain and pain management relating to your illness, including a) options for pain relief, b) potential limitations and side effects of treatment for pain, and c) any concerns you have about taking pain medicines. It is your responsibility to ask for pain relief when pain begins and to tell your doctor or nurse if your pain is not relieved. 5. Be considerate and respectful of other patients, Facility employees and your physicians. 6. Follow Facility rules regarding the conduct of patients, including smoking. 7.

Each patient has the right to be informed of how the complaint will be considered, including the response and resolution process developed by the Facility.

Complaints may be submitted either verbally or in writing. You will also receive information about complaint resolution either verbally or in writing, depending on the nature of the complaint. All complaints are documented at the time of notification and are promptly investigated.

Emergency Blood Pressure FAQs What is blood pressure, and why is it important?

Elevated blood pressure levels can increase the risk of heart disease, stroke, kidney damage, and other health issues. When should I seek medical attention for blood pressure concerns?

Understand your rights under the No Surprises Act, protecting you from unexpected medical bills and ensuring transparent cost estimates. Billing Disclosure Effective January 1, 2022, the No Surprises Act, which Congress passed as part of the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2021, is designed to protect patients from surprise bills for emergency services at out-of-network facilities or for out-of-network providers at in-network facilities, holding them liable only for in-network cost-sharing amounts. The No Surprises Act also enables uninsured patients to receive a good faith estimate of the cost of care. Your Rights and Protections Against Surprise Medical Bills When you get emergency care or get treated by an out-of-network provider at an in-network hospital or ambulatory surgical center, you are protected from surprise billing or balance billing. What is "balance billing" (sometimes called "surprise billing")? When you see a doctor or other healthcare provider, you may owe certain out-of-pocket costs, such as a copayment, coinsurance and/or a deductible. You may have other costs or have to pay the entire bill if you see a provider or visit a healthcare facility that isn’t in your health plan’s network. “Out-of-network” describes providers and facilities that haven’t signed a contract with your health plan. Out-of-network providers may be permitted to bill you for the difference between what your plan agreed to pay and the full amount charged for a service. This is called “balance billing.” This amount is likely more than in-network costs for the same service and might not count toward your annual out-of-pocket limit. “Surprise billing” is an unexpected balance bill. This can happen when you can’t control who is involved in your care — like when you have an emergency or when you schedule a visit at an in-network facility but are unexpectedly treated by an out-of-network provider. You are protected from balance billing for: Emergency Services If you have an emergency medical condition and get emergency services from an out-of-network provider or facility, the most the provider or facility may bill you is your plan’s in-network cost-sharing amount (such as copayments and coinsurance). You can’t be balance billed for these emergency services. This includes services you may get after you’re in stable condition, unless you give written consent and give up your protections not to be balanced billed for these post-stabilization services. Additionally, Texas law protects patients from surprise medical bills in emergencies and when a patient receives covered medical services from an out-of-network provider at an in-network facility. The law applies to state-regulated insurance plans, including the state employee or the teacher retirement systems. This law does not apply to non-emergency healthcare or medical services when a patient elects in advance and in writing to receive those services from an out-of-network provider and when the out-of-network provider provides the patient with a written disclosure. Certain Services at an In-Network Hospital or Ambulatory Surgical Center When you get services from an in-network hospital or ambulatory surgical center, certain providers there may be out-of-network. In these cases, the most those providers may bill you is your plan’s in-network cost-sharing amount. This applies to emergency medicine, anesthesia, pathology, radiology, laboratory, neonatology, assistant surgeon, hospitalist or intensivist services. These providers can’t balance bill you and may not ask you to give up your protections not to be balance billed. If you get other services at these in-network facilities, out-of-network providers can’t balance bill you, unless you give written consent and give up your protections. You’re never required to give up your protections from balance billing. You also aren’t required to get care out-of-network. You can choose a provider or facility in your plan’s network. When balance billing isn't allowed, you also have the following protections: You are only responsible for paying your share of the cost (like the copayments, coinsurance, and deductibles that you would pay if the provider or facility was in-network). Your health plan will pay out-of-network providers and facilities directly. Your health plan generally must: Cover emergency services without requiring you to get approval for services in advance (prior authorization). Cover emergency services by out-of-network providers. Base what you owe the provider or facility (cost-sharing) on what it would pay an in-network provider or facility and show that amount in your explanation of benefits. Count any amount you pay for emergency services or out-of-network services toward your deductible and out-of-pocket limit. If you believe you've been wrongly billed, you may contact: If you believe you’ve been wrongly billed, you may contact the U.S. Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) at 1-800-MEDICARE (1-800-633-4227) or visit cms.gov/nosurprises for more information about your rights under federal law. The Texas Department of Insurance Consumer Help Line at 1-800-252-3439 or visit www.tdi.texas.gov/tips/texas-protects-consumers-from-surprise-medical-bills or www.tdi.texas.gov/medical-billing/surprise-balance-billing for more information about your rights under Texas law. Good Faith Estimate You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost. Under the law, healthcare providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services. You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment and hospital fees. Make sure your healthcare provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least one business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your healthcare provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service. If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate. Get More Information For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit cms.gov/nosurprises or call 1-800-MEDICARE (1-800-633-4227). Billing Phone Number
