Online Bill PayMoves to

Patient Portal Effective August 1, SRMC is making a change to how our patients will access the secure online bill pay service when making a payment by credit card. Patients will need to provide an email address to staff and enroll in the Patient Portal in order to access their account online.

The Patient Portal is available on the SRMC web site at www.salemregional.com, and currently allows patients to view portions of their medical records online. As of August 1, patients will also be able to pay their bill online through the Portal.

A similar change is planned for the SCH Professional Corporation’s online bill pay service, for patients treated at the outreach medical offices and provider services managed by this Corporation.

Go to www.salemregional.com to learn more about these new online bill pay features and how to enroll in the Patient Portals for SRMC and/or the SCH Professional Corporation.

As of August 1, Outpatient Procedures will move from its current location in the Bone and Joint Center to a renovated section of the former OB unit. The new Outpatient Procedures area will be open Mondays and Fridays from 7 a.m.- 3:30 p.m.

This service is being relocated as we plan for the arrival of new orthopaedic surgeon Dr. Jason Boyd, who will join Dr. Dominic Peters, Dr. Lee Simon and the staff of Salem Orthopaedic Surgery in September.
