As the area's largest hospital-independent heart practice since 2002, FCCI works with a long list of insurers, and the Palatka front desk handles these questions every day.

Why outpatient care can cost less

FCCI was the first in the region to offer catheterization procedures in an outpatient setting, with the goal of reducing out-of-pocket costs for patients. Many tests are also done right in the office. FCCI holds seven accreditations in cardiovascular health and aims to deliver this care at lower out-of-pocket cost.

Your actual cost depends on your plan, your deductible and the care you need. We do not list prices here, because they vary. The front desk can walk you through it.

Outpatient care is not right for every case. If you need a hospital stay at HCA Florida Putnam Hospital, FCCI physicians cover there around the clock, and the hospital bills that stay separately.

Talk with a specialist.
