Insurance and Billing Information
No Surprise Medical Bills
We welcome all private insurance plans. While we may be considered an out-of-network provider, state and federal laws require insurance carriers to pay in-network benefits for emergency medical treatment.
You can use a prudent layperson’s standard to determine if your situation qualifies as an emergency. It’s important to review your insurance policy to understand your co-pays, deductibles, co-insurance, and other financial responsibilities. You may receive separate bills from the facility and from physicians (e.g., emergency physician, radiology).
Although we do not participate in nor are connected with any in-network payor, under the protection of the Federal and State laws, you are guaranteed coverage in a true emergency.
Pay Your Bill Online
Exceptional Emergency Center is pleased to offer you the convenience of online bill pay.

This was my FOURTH experience with this company, 3 at Amarillo location 1 in Port Arthur. All were exceptional! They get you in quick, see to your every need, and get you out as quickly as they can. And if, like me, you need to be flown out, they handle that like a champ too!!! All the staff is actually kind and caring, I haven’t met not one rude nurse who is one bad day away from unaliving a pt. (Don’t come at me I work in healthcare too and know there are bad and good providers) only one Dr was questionable, but he still got the job done…ish. 10/10 recommend. But keep in mind this is an ER not an urgent care.

Dr Bartlett, Kenny and Shelly took care of me. I cut a gash in my finger with a cross cut saw which required a stitch. Dr. Bartlett is a hoot! We laughed and joked the whole time I was in there. Kenny and Ashley also took care of me like I was family. Thank you to this team for making my accident an enjoyable event, Bahahaha!!! Any emergency I’m headed to Exceptional Emergency Center.

Dr. Kanase, Becky, Angelique, Vicky, and Andrea were all fantastic. Dr. Kanase thoroughly explained everything and provided excellent service. No one plans a trip to the ER. If I ever need it again, I'll definitely go back. Thanks to everyone there.Posted on Google![]()
