  2. HRSA Billing and Collection Requirements • NCHS must prepare a schedule of fees for the provision of its services consistent with locally prevailing rates or charges and designed to cover its reasonable costs of operation. • NCHS must assure that any fees or payments required by us for healthcare services will be reduced or waived in order to assure that no patient will be denied services due to an individuals inability to pay for such services. We are required to provide a slide based on the patient’s family size & income. NO patient will be denied services for their inability to pay.
