To discourage late or non-payment of medical fees, an administrative charge is imposed on late payments of medical fees and charges for medical services provided.
Administrative charge is applicable to all outstanding medical fees and charges, including drug charges, SFI drugs charges, SFI drugs handling charges and PPMI.
1st Administrative Charge
5% of the outstanding fees overdue for 60 days from issuance of the bills, subject to a cap of $1,000 for each bill
2nd Administrative Charge
An additional 10% on the outstanding fees if the bills remain outstanding 90 days from issuance of the bills, subject to a cap of $10,000 for each bill (excluding unpaid 1st administrative charge)
The maximum total amount of 1st and 2nd administrative charges would be 15% of the outstanding fees, subject to a cap of $11,000.
