Hospital Charge Information List To better inform our patients, Norton Healthcare has prepared the following price list of our charges for some of the more common reasons for a hospital visit. They include use of the emergency department, operating room rates, child birth, physical therapy and other procedures. The hospital's charges are the same for all patients, but the final charges to each patient may vary depending on the agreements Norton Healthcare has negotiated with individual health insurers. As a not-for-profit health care provider, Norton Healthcare returned more than $156 million in community benefit to the Louisville metro area in 2013, consisting primarily of charity care and unreimbursed Medicare costs. In addition, Norton Healthcare offers substantial discounts to patients who do not have healthcare coverage. Those with questions regarding their potential costs for care or payment options can call (502) 485-4866 to consult with one of our billing advisors. For those patients who have health care coverage, Norton Healthcare can also provide you with an estimate of your out of pocket portion of the bill. All questions can be directed to the Managed Care Department at (502) 629-4473. BILLING POLICIES Norton Healthcare wants to ensure that patients receive the full benefits of their insurance coverage as well as consideration under our discount programs. Before we bill you, we will bill your insurance provider, including Medicare and Medicaid, and any secondary insurance providers. We do not charge interest on any balance due after insurance payments are received. In addition to your hospital bill, you may receive a separate bill for physician or other professional service providers involved in your hospital care. If you are not able to pay the amount you owe in full, you may contact Customer Service at 502-479-6300 regarding applying for financial assistance or being set up on a payment plan. Emergency service will never be delayed or withheld on the basis of a patient s ability to pay. The following prices are in effect as of 04/01/17.
