Fair BaseRate™ $2,540

Medicare Rate $2,358

Self-Pay Cash $8,117

1. Amount on Your Bill or Quote ($) Pre-filled with Sck Health’s charged/list benchmark

2. Household Annual Income ($) Screened against 2026 HHS Federal Poverty Guidelines

3. Household Size (1–8) 2026 FPL: $15,650 + $5,500 per additional person

Step 1 · 501(r) Charity Care Check 274% of 2026 FPL

Above Standard 400% FPL Financial-Assistance Ceiling

At 274% FPL, you exceed the standard 400% FPL tier, though medical-hardship caps (when bills exceed 10% of annual income) may still apply.

Step 2 · Cash vs. Insurance Arbitrage Published Cash: $8,117

Compare Prompt-Pay Cash Rate Against Remaining Deductible

Sck Health's published 45 CFR § 180 self-pay cash rate is $8,117 (vs. $2,606 commercial insurer median). Ask billing to reclassify the visit to prompt-pay self-pay if it beats your deductible.

Step 3 · Fair BaseRate Target +$5,577 Above Fair BaseRate

Negotiate Toward $2,540 Fair BaseRate ($2,358 Medicare)

Your bill ($8,117) is $5,577 above the denoised Fair BaseRate ($2,540) and 3.4× the $2,358 Medicare rate.
