Every patient has a right to be seen by a physician and receive a medical
screening exam. Although your insurance may require pre-authorization for an
emergency visit, federal law requires that we evaluate every patient for
potentially life-threatening conditions regardless of insurance.
You also have the right to refuse treatment. Should you choose to do so, you
will be asked to sign a release form.
The hospital will bill you and your insurance. You will receive separate
bills from different departments within the hospital and from the emergency
physicians.
Because there are many insurance providers, and plans frequently change, we
are unable to provide you with any information about your coverage. Please check
with your insurance carrier for any questions.
Certain types of health insurance have restrictions and may specify the
physicians or clinics available to you. It is your responsibility to call your
insurance carrier for any clarification.
