RELIANT BILLS ARE GOING PAPERLESS
Effective July 31st, Reliant Medical Group patients with a MyChart account* will be auto-enrolled in paperless billing. This helps to reduce our paper usage and provide more secure and convenient billing options for patients. Patients can opt-out at any time and continue to receive paper billing statements in the mail if they prefer.
 
*If you have a MyChart account but have already designated to receive bills in the mail, you will not be opted-in to paperless billing.
