Your hospital bill

Understanding your financial options and obligations can be challenging, especially given the complexity of health care insurance and reimbursement. We offer opportunities to address concerns with your hospital bill during registration and after your stay.

At admissions

Each department has a Patient Access Team with registrars and financial counselors who can answer questions you may have about hospital billing or insurance. They can help you:

  • Verify insurance coverage
  • Understand how and when you will be billed
  • Make full or partial payments
  • Request financial counseling or assistance

If your personal accounts and insurance company cannot cover your health care costs, we can suggest alternative arrangements. We may be able to refer you to charitable organizations or help reschedule an elective procedure. If your claim is denied, we may be able to help you appeal your insurance company's decision.

After your stay

If you have outstanding balances or general questions about your hospital bill, we have advisors available to help.

Call Patient Financial Services: 888-703-8401.

Insurance information

St. Charles regularly renegotiates contracts with insurance companies which could result in changes in network status or coverage. We encourage you to reach out directly to your insurance provider with any questions about your plan. The state of Oregon also offers help for those interested in exploring Medicare options through the Senior Health Insurance Benefits Assistance (SHIBA) program.

It is best to always verify with your insurance to see which providers/facilities are networked.

The list above represents insurance companies we most commonly bill on behalf of our patients. The list is subject to change and may not include all insurances or networks we bill. St. Charles Health System will submit a claim to all insurances; however, this submission does not guarantee coverage or payment from that payor. Patient deductibles, co-insurance, co-pays and non-covered charges are the responsibility of the patient.
