Compliance Hotline

To report any compliance issues, including fraud, waste, or abuse, or if you see some way that AMHR or someone within AMHR is not following this Code of Conduct, you must report it. You can do this by:

  • Letting a supervisor know immediately so that we can improve AMHR. Supervisors or any member of management are expected to forward compliance-related concerns to the Compliance Officer.
  • Accessing the EthicsPoint portal 24/7 if you are not comfortable raising concerns within your department, if issues have not been addressed after you have raised them, or if this is your preferred method of reporting. Methods to use are:
    • amhr.ethicspoint.com,
    • by mobile device at amhrmobile.ethicspoint.com,
    • call EthicsPoint toll free to 833-942-0756,
    • by using the EthicsPoint QR Code, or
    • call your AMHR Compliance Officer.

Your communication will be confidential to the extent possible. AMHR will not retaliate against any person that makes a report. Whatever the method, help us follow our Code of Conduct and provide excellent patient care.

Aurora Mental Health & Recovery Sliding Scale and Standard Rates for the Top 15 Billing Codes

AMHR accepts most major commercial insurance. We do not discriminate in the provision of services based on ability to pay, whether payment for those services would be made under Medicare, Medicaid, or CHP. No one is denied access to services due to their inability to pay.

If you do not have insurance, we offer sliding scale rates to individuals who qualify based on Federal Poverty Guidelines of family size and income. The Sliding Fee Scale** (also referred to as the Fee Schedule) is applied uniformly, consistently, and without prejudice. The AMHR Standard Rates for the top 15 services provided at AMHR, as well as the Sliding Fee Scale, are posted below. Final determination of sliding fee scale is through AMHR and the below is for approximate fees only.

How to find your fee: Find your annual household income in the first table below on the row with your number of household members. (Keep in mind that when we say “household”, we mean anyone that you would file taxes with, even if you don’t typically file taxes. This could include a spouse, parent, child, or any dependent.) This identifies your Self-Pay Level. Then, find your fees in the second chart below based on your Self-Pay Level.
