Eastex Emergency Room provides 24/7 emergency care for adults and children in Beaumont, TX, with no appointment needed. Here’s what to know about insurance, out-of-network coverage and self-pay options before or after your visit.
Yes. Eastex Emergency Room bills all major private insurance plans under your emergency room benefits. We are a freestanding emergency medical care facility and are out-of-network for all health benefit plans.
We are unable to accept Medicare, Medicaid, CHIP or Tricare at this time.
Because coverage varies from plan to plan, we recommend checking your emergency room benefits with your insurance company. In a true emergency, never wait to check your coverage. Come in or call 911.
“Out-of-network” means Eastex ER has not signed a contract with your insurance company. Your insurer may process an out-of-network claim differently than it would for an in-network facility, and your health plan decides your coverage and your share of the cost.
For emergencies, you have important protections. Texas law requires commercial insurers to pay for necessary emergency services from out-of-network providers at in-network rates, and the federal No Surprises Act limits what you can be billed for emergency care to your plan’s in-network cost-sharing.

You can still be seen at Eastex ER. Every patient receives a medical screening examination, regardless of insurance or ability to pay, and life-threatening conditions are treated right away.
Patients without insurance, or who prefer not to use it, may choose to be seen as self-pay patients. Call 409-800-1100 to ask about self-pay options and accepted payment methods.
Hurt on the job or in a car accident? Get the emergency care you need first. We evaluate and treat workplace and motor-vehicle injuries such as head and neck injuries, back pain, whiplash, wounds, sprains, suspected fractures, and chest or abdominal injuries.
Billing for workers’ compensation and auto insurance claims depends on your carrier and claim. Please call our billing office at 409-800-1100 with your claim information.
