Members must secure payment with a major credit card or health insurance plan, if any. Cases in excess of $2,000 may require a bank wire transfer of funds or certified funds prior to a referral being issued. In some states members will be required to make a minimum $1,000 deposit to the hospital for each day scheduled for in-patient hospital services. (Deposit will be applied against total bill).

If you know that you or an enrolled dependent requires a hospital stay, we'll work with you to find the hospital that offers the greatest savings based on the hospital privileges provided to your physician. Savings of 5% to 25% are typical and in some cases, hospitals have agreed to package rates for certain procedures making savings of 5% to 40% possible. A Member Services Representative will assist in obtaining an estimate of fees for the proposed procedure(s). This estimate of fees is for facility charges only; bills from physicians are handled separately.
