Patients often ask about their financial responsibility before surgery. An insurance specialist will review any financial responsibility before you have surgery. This may include any co-payments, deductibles or out-of-network fees. At that time, the specialist will assist you in making arrangements for payment.
After surgery all billable charges will be submitted to your insurance carrier. Once the insurer has paid, we will reconcile the account and alert you if there is a remaining balance.
You will also be receiving statements from several different providers (a provider is a doctor or other healthcare professional that has been involved in your pre-op testing or surgical care. This may include radiologists, internists, cardiologists, pulmonologists, anesthesiologists and pathologists, etc.). Providers all bill separately from the hospital.
