Insurances accepted

Baylor Scott & White has established agreements with several types of insurance to ensure your health needs are covered.

Insurance listings are subject to change without prior notice. Please call your physician's office or your health or insurance plan to verify coverage information prior to scheduling your visit or procedure. Not all members participating in contracted networks have "in network" access. In network participation may change from time to time without prior notice. Independent providers (which could include, for example only, anesthesiologists, radiologists, pathologists, emergency medicine physicians, advance practice professionals, and other independent providers of health care services) may deliver part of your care, and such providers may be considered out-of-network on your health and insurance plans even if the Facility may be considered in network. If you desire additional information as to the providers who may be involved in providing your care, you can either ask your treating provider (who may know some of the specialists or groups who could be involved) or you can request a list of Facility-based physician groups by calling the following toll free number: (877) 810-0372. This list is updated annually and is subject to change without prior notice

5.0 Feb 3, 2025 Always cares and gets me well
5.0 Feb 2, 2025 It was Sat afternoon and I felt quite fortunate to be able to see anyone at all. I feel the ladies at the check in desk went way way above and beyond to work me in when another person canceled their appt. They got me in so quickly I was amazed. The CMA was very compassionate, as was Heather. I was in intense pain due to a corneal abrasion and they really helped me calm down to get an accurate idea of my problem. Heather is so sweet and took initiative in my care when she discovered the clinic was out of R eye shields. She prescribed a course of treatment and reassured me that the pain would lessen after a few applications of prescription erythromycin ointment. It has gotten much better since last night as predicted. I am very reassured with all the CDM weekend providers, as I have unfortunately been there with unanticipated urgent medical problems a few times lately. Thank you for this service, and please consider adding either more providers or more hours as I understand they usually get all the time slots booked by noon. There doesn't really appear to be a way to book these in advance by calling. No one answers the phone and you have to show up and hope you can get in to avoid possibly going to your horrible ED.
