Paying Your Bill
We've kept registration, consultation, and even surgery as simple and streamlined as they can be and we're keeping our bill pay system simple, as well.
Physicians Surgery Center of Frederick is pleased to offer convenient, secure online bill pay, which is designed to eliminate misunderstandings and questions, while keeping the payment process clear and easy-to-follow. It's nice to forego paper checks and postage, and to have the convenience of 24/7 service.
We have experienced greater patient satisfaction with online bill pay, but if you prefer your invoice mailed, please let us know.
Please let us know prior to your surgery if you need help making special financial arrangements; we're happy to discuss alternative payment methods with you. To review the PSCF Charity Care Policy, click here. To access the Financial Assistance form, click here.
In addition to printing your receipt, we encourage you to verify with us by phone or email that your payment has posted. Feel free to contact us with any questions related to your account or online payment at (240) 215-3070 x221.
