Please note the information provided does not reflect the actual cost of care for patients. Your out-of-pocket costs will vary given the following factors:
- Negotiated charges are based on Early Medical Center’s contracts with each insurance company. Your individual insurance coverage determines what percentage of the negotiated charge is your responsibility. The negotiated charge for a particular service can vary based on a variety of factors, driven by an individual’s specific medical condition and needs. These can include, but are not limited to (i.) how long it takes to perform the service or how long it takes the patient to recover in the hospital, (ii.) whether the service is more or less difficult than expected, (iii.) the type of medications required, (iv.) any complications that require additional treatment and (v.) other health conditions that may affect the patient’s care.
- These charges change frequently — the best way to obtain up-to-date costs is to call the hospital and ask for a cost estimate.
