Do you work with businesses in Katy?
Yes. PCI Solutions serves Katy employers from our Houston office at 5920 Star Lane, Houston, TX 77057, not a local branch. Call 713-329-6944 to discuss your workforce, budget, providers and enrollment. We can help compare options and review enrollment changes and renewal; coverage and claims decisions remain with the insurer.

What should a small Texas employer check before offering coverage?
Texas small-employer coverage generally applies to businesses with 2–50 employees, subject to insurer eligibility. Confirm contributions and participation with the carrier. See our small-business health insurance guide; ACA employer obligations use a different full-time-equivalent calculation, explained in our ACA employer requirements guide.

How should we prepare to compare group health insurance costs?
Prepare a current employee census, contribution budget, desired start date, renewal documents and requested providers. A workforce-specific quote is needed; a nearby hospital does not establish a price or network. See our group health insurance cost guide for the comparison steps.

Will a Katy plan include Houston Methodist Continuing Care Hospital?
Not necessarily. Methodist lists Continuing Care at 701 S. Fry Rd., Katy, TX 77450, and identifies it as long-term acute care. Its address does not establish plan participation. Verify the exact network, facility and physicians, and confirm the type of care needed.

Is Methodist West interchangeable with Continuing Care in Katy?
No. Methodist lists West at 18500 Katy Fwy., Houston, TX 77094, and Continuing Care at 701 S. Fry Rd., Katy. Continuing Care is long-term acute care. Use the correct campus and service; a Katy Freeway address does not establish a City of Katy location.

How do we identify the correct Methodist campus near Katy?
Specify West Hospital in Houston or Continuing Care in Katy, and the treating doctor's name and practice address. Methodist's directory distinguishes those campuses and Continuing Care's specialized role. Ask the insurer to verify facility and physician participation and applicable authorization requirements under the proposed plan.
