Billing & Insurance
Billing
Following your procedure, our business office will bill your insurance
carrier(s) directly; your insurance carrier(s) will then send you an “explanation
of benefits” (EOB) statement. The EOB is not a bill; instead, it
itemizes all the services you received at Methodist Southlake, explains
what portion of the costs are paid by the insurance carrier(s), and highlights
what you will owe our hospital.
Once the EOB has been processed, we will bill you the remaining balance
still owed, which will be due upon receipt. Please note that Methodist
Southlake Hospital will bill you only for hospital services, so you may
receive separate bills from other providers, including the surgeon or
anesthesiologist.
Payment
Any deductible or co-pay that is required by your insurance carrier(s)
will be due on or before your day of treatment. If you do not have insurance,
the full procedure amount will be due at that time; however, you are welcome
to contact our business office before your procedure date and our staff
will work with you to help develop a monthly payment plan.
At Methodist Southlake, we are happy to accept cash, cashier’s checks,
major credit cards and personal checks with a valid accompanying ID.
