While I have no complaints in regards to the care I received at Beth Israel, their billing and financial assistance policies are a different story. I had a balance pile up due to a number of health issues. I called to set up a payment plan, but was told the minimum they would allow is $100/month. I cannot afford that so they passed me along to financial hesitance who informed me that unless I'm on MassHealth, there is nothing they can do for me. I'm moving out of state so that's not even possible. I was told even if I make payments, they could send my bills to collections since I wasn't on the official plan minimum. They provide absolutely no financial help or counseling if you are not already on MassHealth which I found extremely disappointing after the hours and money I've spent at their hospital.
