Billing Procedures and Insurance Information

Common Billing Questions

What do I need to know about my insurance policy?
Information about insurance
How can I get an itemized bill?
Call patient financial services at 444-6966 or 800-884-6966.
What is an "EOB"?
EOB stands for "explanation of benefits." It is NOT a bill; it simply explains your insurance coverage.
Why doesn't my insurance cover everything?
Not all insurance policies are the same. You should check with your insurance company to see what your particular policy covers.
Why do I have to give my coverage information more than once?
Although this may seem repetitive, we may not always have your most recent insurance and/or personal information.
If I am not asked about my insurance, should I still give it?
Absolutely! For the hospital to bill appropriately we need your correct insurance information.
Will I be charged for a private room?
Yes, there is an additional charge for a private room and a deposit is required. It is a good idea to call your insurance company prior to your visit to see if it will be covered. If a private room is medically necessary and ordered by your physician, you will not be charged for a private room.
