You have to be prepared for at least 5 hours or more hours waiting time at this hospital. Front desk is rude and have no respect at all.

Bless this place. They saved my life. Cardio thoracic surgery team is top notch. ICU nurses kept me alive and took care of me after surgery. ER team and shock room team too. Nurses in 5g y’all are awesome. Love you all!!! Highly recommend Ben Taub!!

Questions & Answers
What is emergency in a clinical service when patiients stay over 10 hours without seeing a Doctor?

If you have to wait that long, consider yourself lucky. My boyfriend just got into a car accident with brain and face trauma and he was pushed ahead of everyone to save his life. Have faith the doctors know who to prioritize first and take comfort when you aren’t seen immediately. The fact anyone can post a review while waiting is a blessing. I am still waiting on Manny to respond to touch. Count your blessings.
Harris Health System's mission is to improve our community's health by delivering high-quality healthcare to Harris County residents. While medical care is not free at our facilities, there is financial assistance for those who qualify.
To qualify for financial assistance, your household income may not exceed 150% of the Federal Poverty Level.
All Harris Health patients are asked to make a minimum payment at the time of their hospital or clinic visit, except for pediatric and prenatal care visits. Service fees do not apply to patients in the Healthcare for the Homeless Program or other insurance plans. Insurance plan copays will be collected according to plan requirements. For more on how to apply, visit our website: https://www.harrishealth.org/access-care-hh/eligibility/Pages/default.aspx

I need surgery and I don’t have health insurance. Also I’m not a Harris county resident I live in Montgomery County. Will this hospital do surgery and let me do payment plans?
Arely Martinez | Nov 6, 2019

Im afraid it will depend. Yes they will alow payment plans However if you need
Surgery urgently they would probably refer you to the other building infront of it called the tower
Felix and Rita, if you do not live in Harris they will not give you the benefit of the gold card, this is the one that helps the costs of the visit to be less than 25 dollars including operations and therapies that would cost you thousands of dollars LITERAL, that benefit It is only granted by Harris County, if your visa is a TOURIST visa, it is because you were able to demonstrate at the time of applying for it that you had sufficient economic solvency not to be a public charge for the country. . . From then on your medical charges would be complete and I am talking about really high charges, an operation of appendix 50,000 dollars including hospital stay, any other medical condition will be the same FULL PAYMENT, your tourist visa limits you any type of help given by the government, because you are supposed to come to the country to GIVE and not to TAKE away through public services. . . Greetings friends. . .
Yes. Resident non-citizens can qualify at Harris Health. However, the current demand for hemodialysis exceeds the number of regular dialysis treatment slots available. You may find in speaking with a caregiver that a peritoneal home-dialysis program may fit your needs in place of hemodialysis visits at a clinic.

My father also needs surgery. But they didn't do it because he has other health problems (heart and high blood pressure). Surgery for him was going to be more risky. I am sure that the doctors here are looking for the best option for his wife without risking his wife's life. Ask what is the reason that she is waiting a long time with her condition... I am sure they will give you a concrete answer. Good luck to both of you!

Ben Taub Hospital | Nov 6, 2019
We're sorry to hear of your recent diagnosis. If you are an existing patient of Harris Health System, you should speak to your doctor about your treatment plan. With that information you may talk with a patient financial services representative to estimate the cost of care. The good news for eligible patients living in Harris County is the cost of care is greatly reduced or nearly free. If you are not currently a registered patient at Harris Health, you can find eligibility information on our website: https://www.harrishealth.org/access-care/patient-eligibility
I recently went to an urgent Care, long story short. Had MRI done found out I have a ruptured/torn ACL. I don't have any insurance. Will they help me with the surgery process?

Ben Taub Hospital | Nov 6, 2019
If you are a resident of Harris County Texas you will be eligible for services. If your household income is <150% of federal poverty level the care you receive is uncharged to you. For individuals and families who earn more than that a payment schedule can be made available to you. To speak to an eligibility representative for more details, call 713-526-4243. We hope this information is helpful.
To speak with a doctor, you will need to schedule an appointment. If you already have a primary care doctor at Harris Health, you may communicate with them through the MyHealth (Epic MyChart) app.
I want to give my opinion about this hospital, I had a family member here and the service is terrible, lack of care for patients leaves much to be desired because they are very negligent, with patients because my family member was very ill!

Harris Health | Nov 6, 2018
Please call 9-1-1 immediately. The hospital staff cannot respond to requests like this. 9-1-1 can send the appropriate team to help the person in distress. We hope you are OK.
I love the hospital, and the attention they give, only that to go to the emergency they take a long time to see you, you have to go ready to take 13 hours to wait for them to attend you.

That's a great question! You've asked probably the most important question anyone has ever asked in regards to Ben Taub Hospital. Thank you!
Why do they say they are going to check on this for you, but instead completely ignore you. I know there are other top priority patients but I been waiting over 5 hours. Nurses keep saying they are going to check but never come back. This horrible.
