Financial Services

Prior to service
Please check your insurance coverage to be sure you and your physician have met the required pre-treatment authorizations. (i.e. second opinions or pre-certification of services.) If these conditions are not met, your insurance company could deny benefits and you will be responsible for payment.

Your hospital bill
Labette Health bills your insurance company if you provide us with the proper information. If insurance payment is delayed, or there is a balance due after insurance payment, a statement will be mailed to you. Read the message carefully as action may be required on your part. If you have any questions or concerns about hospital charges or billing please feel free to call the business office during normal business hours 8:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m. Monday thru Friday and we will be glad to answer any questions you may have about your bill.  Payment Policy

Physician's Bill
Each doctor who treats you will send you a bill, separate from the one you receive from Labette Health. Consulting doctors interpret laboratory results, X-rays, and other tests requested by your doctor and will also send you a bill for their services. If you have any questions about charges you have received from your doctor you will need to contact that physician's office directly.

Medicare patients
Please bring your Medicare card with you. Labette Health will bill Medicare directly if you furnish us with the proper information. You will receive an Explanation of Benefits from Medicare indicating what Medicare has paid.

No Insurance / Patient balance after insurance payment
Payment is due in full unless the Financial Counselor authorizes a payment plan . We accept checks and credit card payments.
