At Smith Medical we believe that pricing should be obvious when it comes to every single surgery cost.
Say No To Surprise Billing: Better Surgery Costs
In Colorado, there are laws that protect people from getting unexpected medical bills in certain situations.
Current these laws apply when you get emergency services, non-emergency services from a doctor who is not in your insurance network but works at a hospital that is in your network, use a private ambulance, or get help from an out-of-network air ambulance.
These laws say that you shouldn’t have to pay more than you would if you had gone to a doctor or hospital in your insurance network. This means you won’t be charged extra for things like coinsurance or copayments.
At Smith Medical Direct Specialty Care we believe that the No Surprise Billing Act should extend further, which is why we have every surgery cost right on our website. As the laws change in order to better protect patients from surprise billing, unexpected financial issues we want to take the first step to help ensure patients understand pricing and cost from the beginning of their surgery journey.
Cash-Pay Surgery Options are Better Than Traditional Surgery
Sometimes, when you go to the doctor or hospital, you might get a bill that you weren’t expecting. This can happen if the place you went to isn’t in your insurance network. It’s called balance billing or out-of-network billing.
Balance billing is when the doctor or hospital charges you extra money because your insurance didn’t cover the full cost of your visit. To avoid these mix-ups in the first place, we focus on cash-pay procedures that don’t include insurance. This allows us to cut out the middleman, lower our costs and provide our patients with affordable surgery costs.
You Deserve Transparent Surgery Costs
Cost transparency is crucial when it comes to surgery as patients deserve to understand pricing and make informed decisions about their specific needs for a procedure or operation. Knowing the cost of a surgical procedure upfront allows patients to plan financially, avoid unexpected bills, and choose the best option based on their budget and needs.
Smith Medical focuses on providing clear pricing by having an all-in-one price point that includes preoperative, postoperative, imaging, diagnostics, day-of-surgery and more. We want our patients to feel at easy financially.
With clear pricing information, patients can compare costs between providers, ensuring they receive fair pricing for the services they receive. The transparency of surgery costs also promotes accountability by holding providers accountable and preventing price gouging.
Ultimately, cost transparency not only empowers patients but also improves trust and fosters a more equitable healthcare system where individuals can confidently access the care they need without fear of financial burden.
