Frequently Asked Questions
Do you offer payment arrangements?
To determine if you qualify for payment arrangements, please contact our customer service department at 800-498-7157.
Is there any help available if I am experiencing financial hardship?
Yes, please contact customer service at 800-498-7157.
Why do I receive separate bills from the hospital and physician?
Vituity physicians are not employed by the hospital; therefore, you will receive a separate bill.
For example: If you came in to the emergency room and had an x-ray and lab tests, you may receive a bill from the hospital for the use of the facility and technology, a bill from the emergency physician for professional services, a bill from the radiologist for interpreting any x-rays, and a bill from the pathologist for analyzing any specimens taken.
Is there support available to help me better understand my billing statement?
Yes, you are welcome to contact our customer service department Monday–Friday between the hours of 6:00 am–5:30 pm PST at 800-498-7157.
Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services.
You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any scheduled non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees.
Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your health care provider for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service.
If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.
Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call 1-800-985-3059.
