Billing
Medical billing is complex and can be difficult to understand. The Pay Your Bill link has information about the billing process and definitions of terms that are frequently used in medical billing to help you better understand how the billing process works.
The Hospital Charges link has spreadsheets with our hospitals' standard charges for items and services as well as charges for each diagnosis-related group (DRG). Spreadsheets list standard hospital charges and are not intended to be used to estimate your cost for receiving care.
Your total bill will depend on a number of factors. Some of these include patient acuity (how sick you are), the specific services you receive and the specific products that are ordered by your clinician. You will receive separate bills for hospital services and for physician services. If you have insurance, your out-of-pocket cost is based on the terms of your insurance plan and rates for services negotiated by your insurance company.
Pricing fluctuations may occur, and we will post periodic updates to this list. If you have questions, please contact Billing Customer Service at 540-983-4294 or toll free at 866-720-3742.
