You can pay medical bills through PerYourHealth either online or by phone using the account number or access key on your statement; the service is a real third‑party billing portal tied to Change Healthcare (Optum/UnitedHealth Group).
OFFICIAL WEBSITE : PerYourHealth
How to Pay Your Bill
1. Online at PerYourHealth.com
- Go to the official portal: www.peryourhealth.com (some guides use a safe redirect like www‑peryourhealth.com).
- On the sign‑in page, enter either:
- Your PerYourHealth ID / user ID, or
- The Account Number / Access Key printed on your billing statement (often labeled “PerYourHealth ID” or “Access Code”).
- After logging in you can:
- View your balance and statement details
- Pay by credit/debit card or bank account (ACH)
- Save a payment method or set up auto‑pay (if your provider enables it)
If you forgot your user ID or password, there is a recovery flow that uses your account number and email.
2. Pay by Phone
Many PerYourHealth statements list an automated phone payment number such as (888) 440‑4460 or a provider‑specific billing line.
- Call the number on your paper bill.
- Provide your PerYourHealth account number or access key, plus card or bank details.
- Follow voice prompts to submit a payment and request a confirmation number.
If in doubt, you can also call your hospital or doctor’s own billing office and ask them to transfer you to the correct PerYourHealth payment line.
Security, Change Healthcare Incident, and Legitimacy
- Operator: PerYourHealth is part of Change Healthcare, acquired by Optum (UnitedHealth Group), and is widely used for hospital and physician billing.
- 2024 cyberattack: A major ransomware attack on Change Healthcare in February 2024 disrupted many of its systems, temporarily taking portals like PerYourHealth offline in some regions.
- If the site is down or looks wrong:
- Do not keep retrying random links or “.io / .doctor / .it.com” look‑alike sites.
- Instead, call the billing office number printed on your statement and pay them directly or ask how to pay while PerYourHealth is unavailable.
To verify legitimacy, always confirm that the provider name and service dates on the bill match a real visit you had.
Why You Might Get a Separate PerYourHealth Bill
- Hospital bills often split into:
- Even if you already paid the hospital, you may later receive a PerYourHealth bill covering professional fees for doctors who bill separately.
Call your provider or insurer if you’re unsure whether a second bill is expected.
How to Avoid Scams and Overpayments
PerYourHealth itself is legitimate, but scammers mimic it.
- Type the URL manually (www.peryourhealth.com) or use the QR/URL printed on your paper statement—avoid links in unsolicited texts or emails.
- Cross‑check:
- Red flags:
- Requests to pay by gift cards, Zelle, crypto, or wire transfer
- Emails from non‑corporate domains (e.g., @gmail.com, @yahoo.com) claiming to be PerYourHealth
For serious disputes, keep a written log and you can also ask your bank or card issuer to help contest fraudulent charges.
