Question: Do I have to pay before my treatment or service?
Answer:When we provide a Good Faith Estimate of your costs, it will include the anticipated amount you may owe based on what your doctor has ordered and scheduled. Your amount due may include copayments, deductibles, coinsurance or a non-covered amount.
We make every effort to contact you before your service date to review your estimated amount due, collect your deposit and/or make other financial arrangements with you.

Question: What is included in my estimate?
Answer:Your AdventHealth estimate will include both hospital fees and fees from AdventHealth-employed providers, when applicable. However, not all providers at AdventHealth facilities are employed by AdventHealth. Each provider can bill you separately for their professional services. If you receive services at a hospital, the hospital will charge you a facility fee which is separate from the professional fee charged by a provider. For a list of non-owned AdventHealth providers and how to contact them for an estimate of their fees, see the Additional Bill Types section.

Question: What is price transparency?
Answer:We're committed to helping you understand your health care costs while remaining compliant with federal and state guidelines. Price Transparency allows you to make informed decisions by proactively comparing healthcare costs for different services. AdventHealth complies with price transparency regulations such as the No Surprise Act, a federal law designed to protect individuals covered by health insurance from unexpected medical bills, particularly from out-of-network care in emergency situations, non-emergency care at in-network facilities, and air ambulance services.
