The Recovery Team accepts most major insurance plans, including Medicaid. Coverage and benefits vary by plan. Verification does not guarantee payment.

If you are uninsured or prefer to self-pay, you have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate of expected charges before receiving services. For certain out-of-network emergency services and ancillary services at in-network facilities, federal law limits surprise billing and balance billing. For details or to request a Good Faith Estimate, contact our Billing team at [email protected].Who this page is for
