Cost of an ER Visit With Insurance at ER Katy

ER Katy accepts all commercial and private insurance plans. This includes health insurance providers such as:

  • UnitedHealthcare
  • Elevance Health
  • Blue Cross Blue Shield
  • Cigna

All commercial insurance carriers are required by state and federal law to bill an emergency room as an “In-Network” provider. The State of Texas empowers you to use a “prudent layperson’s standard” of what constitutes a medical emergency. This means that if an average person knew of your condition and felt it could be placing your health in jeopardy, then an emergency room visit is warranted.

Took my 2 yr old son on New Year's Eve at 11 pm. They were very prompt and caring. Their treatment was right on the money. He had a very severe allergic reaction.
