Help paying a medical bill
Beta. Stampede is in beta. Right now it runs on play money, so no real bill gets paid yet. Real payments come next.
Behind on a medical bill? On Stampede you post it, a person checks it, and strangers can stamp it paid, a few dollars at a time. The payment goes straight to the hospital billing office. Not to you, and not to anyone else.
How it works for medical bills
- Post it. Snap a photo of the bill, or type in the amount and the due date. Add a line about what it means to you.
- We check it. A person reviews it before it goes up. The account details stay private and encrypted.
- Strangers see only the basics: that it's a medical bill, the amount, your city and your note. Never your name.
- We pay the hospital billing office once it's covered, or when the due date arrives with money raised.
Other places to ask today
Nonprofit hospitals have to publish a financial assistance policy. Ask the billing office for it and for an itemized bill before you pay anything.
