BILL PAYMENT

BILLING POLICIES

ESTIMATED FEES AND INSURANCE INFORMATION

Our staff will verify insurance coverage for the facility fees prior to surgery. If your insurance policy does not provide 100% coverage of the planned procedure, please be prepared to make a deposit on the day of surgery for the co-insurance and/or deductible portion of the facility fee. 100% payment is also required for any services that are not covered by your insurance policy. All quotes for procedures are estimates, and prior to your surgery date you will receive a phone call, email and/or letter advising you of requested deposits. Your estimate will also be visible on your patient registration portal. You may also call us to receive a quote of the estimated charges for your surgery.Please understand that actual billed charges are based on the doctor’s operative report and actual surgery times.

YOUR BILL

After your surgery, Knightsbridge Surgery Center will prepare a bill for your surgery. The surgery center’s facility fee includes charges for surgery (pre-op, intra-op and post-op nursing care, supplies and intra-operative medications, implants, equipment, use of the operating and recovery rooms), pre-op testing performed at the surgery center, and intra-operative radiology.
The Center bills to all insurance companies, and to Medicare for procedures covered by Medicare in an ambulatory surgery center.
We do not bill insurance for cosmetic procedures unless prior approval of the planned surgical procedure has been received from the insurance company.
