Billing & Insurance
When you receive a bill from us, it covers services you received at one
of our healthcare facilities. As a courtesy to our patients, we will bill
your insurance company, Medicare or Medicaid on your behalf. We will do
everything possible to obtain payment and expedite your claim.
You also may receive separate bills from your personal physician, surgeon,
pathologist, radiologist or other healthcare professional. Questions about
any of these bills should be directed to the number printed on the statement
you receive.
If you have insurance
We accept most major health insurance plans and managed care programs.
Several factors can affect the amount a patient owes the hospital. Some
health insurance plans may have special requirements for certain tests
or procedures. Additionally, some physicians may not participate in your
healthcare plan and their services may not be covered. If you fail to
meet your health insurance plan requirements, you may be financially responsible
for all or part of the services you receive at the hospital. Be sure you
review your benefits plan to understand all of the plan requirements affecting
your financial responsibility.
If you don’t have insurance
No one will be denied necessary medical care due to lack of insurance or
inability to pay. However, you may be asked to pay a deposit when you’re
admitted or when you register for an outpatient procedure.

Payment Policy
Payment in full is required at the time of service from all patients who
owe co-pays, coinsurance, have not met their deductible, or do not have
insurance coverage. Balances after insurance payment are due upon receipt.
Even if we bill your health insurance, payment is the ultimate responsibility
of the patient. You will be financially responsible for payment of your
hospital bill. To assist you with your financial responsibility, we offer
discounts, payment plans or charity care, for patients that qualify. For
more information, contact our Patient Access Department.
