Let’s face it — having insurance doesn’t always mean you’re saving money.
At Aslan Health, we’ve had many patients with insurance choose to pay our flat $75 fee out of pocket instead of using their insurance at a traditional clinic. Why? Because in many cases, they save hundreds of dollars doing it this way.
Here’s how it works — and why it might be a smart financial move for you or your family.
The Hidden Costs of “Covered” Care
Most insurance plans today come with high deductibles, meaning you pay out-of-pocket for most medical services until you’ve met that deductible — often $2,000 or more per year. So if you visit a traditional clinic for a basic appointment, you’ll likely get a bill for $300–$400 or more. That includes office visit fees, additional provider charges, and lab/test markups — all before insurance kicks in.
And because it’s being billed through insurance, you usually won’t know the final cost until the bill shows up weeks later.
The Aslan Health Difference: Clarity and Cost Savings
At Aslan Health, we believe in transparent, affordable pricing. A basic appointment is just $75 — and you pay that upfront. No surprise bills. No mystery charges.
We also give you an itemized receipt that you can submit to your insurance provider. While it may not count toward your deductible (depending on your plan), it still gives you the opportunity to get partial reimbursement or apply it toward an HSA or FSA.
Real-World Example
Let’s say you have insurance with a $3,000 deductible. You go to a traditional clinic for a minor illness. After insurance adjustments, your bill is $365. That entire amount goes toward your deductible — so you pay it all out-of-pocket.
At Aslan Health, the same visit costs just $75. You save $290, and you’re still getting the same high-quality care — often from providers with even more time to listen and help.
Bonus: You’re Supporting a Mission-Driven Clinic
By choosing Aslan Health, you’re not just saving money — you’re supporting a nonprofit clinic that serves the uninsured, underinsured, and those with nowhere else to turn. Every dollar you spend helps us care for someone who can’t afford care.
So even if you have insurance, don’t assume it’s the cheapest or best option. Check your deductible, consider your likely out-of-pocket costs, and give us a call. We’d be honored to care for you — with clarity, compassion, and no surprise bills.
