Prices

Fenway Health publishes a billing and insurance page. It publishes no pricing and no prices, rates or fees for individual services, so no cost, price or quote for a visit can be given from the website; the number for billing inquiries is 617.927.6050, and 617.927.6000 is given for discussing financial assistance.

The page states verbatim
"No one will be denied access to services due to inability to pay; there is a discounted/sliding fee schedule available based on family size and income." It says that people living in Massachusetts can get help enrolling in insurance, and invites patients having trouble with co-pays to say so. The amounts on the sliding fee schedule are not published and must be confirmed with the health center.

On insurance, the page states that Fenway Health and the Sidney Borum, Jr. Health Program "accept most major health plans," and lists MassHealth (the Massachusetts Medicaid plan), Blue Cross Blue Shield, Harvard Pilgrim, Tufts, Cigna, Klais, Wellfleet, AllWays Health Partners, Aetna and United Health Care, adding "most plans - please call to check." It also states that out of state Medicaid plans cannot be accepted. Whether a specific plan is accepted, and what it covers, must be confirmed with the health center and with the insurer.

The page describes the Good Faith Estimate under the No Surprises Act for patients who do not have insurance or are not using insurance, and notes that medical tests at Fenway Health are conducted by Quest Labs and that Fenway is not able to provide an estimate for those services. Bills for medical, behavioral health or optometry services can be paid online through the MyChart patient portal.
