Pricing Transparency
In order to comply with the 2015 Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) per CMS regulation, Memorial offers the following information as a comprehensive list of charges for each inpatient and outpatient service or item provided by our hospital. This provides reference to hospital charges and payor negotiated rates. It is not a helpful tool for patients to comparison shop between hospitals, nor a good indicator of what a patient’s final out-of-pocket cost will be. Patients should contact their medical insurance provider to get further details about the possible cost of their care, including healthcare providers in- and out-of-network and covered services. Patient responsibility and out of pocket expense is determined by several factors and should be discussed with their insurance provider to understand which costs will be covered by insurance as well as out of pocket expense. Patients without medical coverage will find details regarding our hospital’s financial assistance policy and identified procedures may also have cash pricing offered by MHG. If the information provided by contacting the insurance company is not sufficient and more detail is needed regarding the cost of your care, or understanding of coverage and patient responsibility, please contact Customer Service at (228) 867-4108.
