No Surprises Act/Good Faith Estimate
Nobody likes to be surprised by the cost of their medical care. That is why it is important to understand the health insurance you carry to determine what your financial responsibility is for your medical care. We are committed to sharing information in ways that will help you make informed decisions about health care services. A component of the federal 鈥淣o Surprises Act鈥 is your right to receive a Good Faith Estimate explaining how much your medical care will cost if you are uninsured or are electing to pay for care without insurance. A Good Faith Estimate will be emailed to all uninsured or self-pay patients at the time of scheduling their appointment. As a patient, you have rights. Upon receiving your bill, if the total costs exceed $400 from the Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate visit .
