GOOD FAITH ESTIMATE

 Big Sandy Health Care (BSHC) is available to provide patients that are uninsured or that are not using their insurance a reasonable estimate of what they will be billed for medical and/or other services.

-You are eligible to receive a good faith estimate of the expected cost of any non-emergency medical services. This includes costs for medical services provided by BSHC such as those for exams and in-house testing.

-At the time you schedule an appointment that is more than three days prior to receiving the medical services please ask BSHC to provide you with a Good Faith Estimate. BSHC will provide the Good Faith Estimate at least one (1) business day before your appointment.

-You also have the right to request that BSHC provide a Good Faith Estimate prior to scheduling an appointment.

-It is the patient’s responsibility to save a copy of the Good Faith Estimate.

-In the event you should receive a bill that is $400.00 or more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.
