How am I billed for services?
When you register, a billing account is set up in your name. All hospital charges will be made on one bill, including itemized charges for laboratory tests, radiology (X-rays) and pharmacy items. If you had certain tests or treatments in the hospital, you may receive separate bills from physicians whom you did not see in person. These bills are for professional services rendered by these doctors in diagnosing and interpreting test results while you were a patient at KRMC. Pathologists, radiologists, cardiologists, anesthesiologists, emergency physicians and other specialists perform these services and are required to submit separate bills. If you have questions about these bills (bills that did not originate from the hospital), please call the number printed on the statement you receive.

What does my insurance cover?
All insurance plans are private contracts between patients and their insurance companies. As a courtesy, we attempt to verify your coverage and obtain payment from your insurance company; however financial responsibility for payment of the hospital bill is yours. Please review your insurance plan carefully, as many plans require preadmission authorization from your insurance company and/or second opinions. You are responsible for meeting these requirements to maintain your coverage.

Do I need to pay a deposit?
When you arrive at the hospital to check in for service, please be prepared to pay the difference, if any, between your verified insurance benefits and the estimated charges for your services. Your actual charges may be more or less than the estimated charges. If they are less, you will get a refund.

If you do not have hospital insurance, you will be asked to pay the estimated charges for your service when you register. You can pay by cash, personal check, debit card, MasterCard, Visa, American Express or Discover.
It is important to note that your deposit is for your hospital care and does not include your physician's charges or those of additional consulting physicians, including the anesthesiologist.
