questions about your bill
What billing or insurance information will I receive?
You will receive a copy of your bill. After your insurance
has paid, we'll provide you with a monthly statement of your account.
How long will it take to get things settled with the
insurance company?
Generally, it takes from 45 to 60 days to obtain payment
from an insurance carrier.
Why am I getting bills from physicians?
Each physician who provides professional services will send
you a separate bill from his or her office. These physicians will include:
- your own physician
- other physicians who conducted tests and procedures
- consulting physicians chosen by your primary physician to
read and interpret test results.
These physicians may include specialists in anesthesiology,
cardiology, emergency medicine, nuclear medicine, pathology, radiology, or
urodynamics. You will be responsible for paying these bills as well.
I received a notice that my insurance company has paid on
my bill -- but I can't understand how they calculated their payment amount. Do you know?
If we have received any such information from your
insurance company, we'll be glad to share it with you. However, for answers to
any questions about insurance payments, deductibles, or co-payments, you
generally need to check with your insurance company.
