Effective January 1, 2019, hospitals in Missouri and throughout the nation are required to post a machine-readable list of their current standard charges online. The information provided below is a comprehensive list of charges for each inpatient and outpatient service or item provided by Scotland County Hospital, also known as a charge master. It is not a helpful tool for patients to comparison shop between hospitals or to estimate what health care services are going to cost them out of their own pocket. The best approach for consumers interested in understanding their out-of-pocket cost is to work with the hospital, physician and insurance plan in advance. For more information about the cost of your care at Scotland County Hospital, please contact our Financial Services Department at 660-465-8511.

ATTENTION SELF PAY PATIENTS

A good-faith estimate is provided to help self-pay, uninsured or out-of-network patients to understand their potential costs for services provided at the clinic.

When paying in full with our SAME DAY DISCOUNT, and taking advantage of our 50% savings, this is a good-faith ESTIMATE of your charges for that Date of Service.  You may be sent an itemized bill/statement after your Date of Service for charges that were not included in the total.  The final itemized bill/statement you receive will reflect the full discount you would have received on the Date of Service, had the estimate been accurate.  We ask that it be paid within 30 days of receiving the final itemized bill/statement.

Business, Billing and Financial Information

Our trained professional staff will make every effort to assist you with questions and concerns about your billing and insurance information. You will receive a statement/bill a few days after your discharge from the hospital. Because delayed charges may occur, you may receive a revised bill for charges not included in the original bill. As a service to you, Scotland County Hospital (SCH) will bill your insurance company. It is your responsibility to furnish us with your current insurance information. Any balance not covered by your insurance plan will be your responsibility.

In some cases, a deposit may be required for any non-covered services or deductible at the time of your admission. Your insurance carrier may require pre-admission certification prior to your admission to SCH.  Please check the terms of your insurance policy or contact your insurance provider regarding this requirement for healthcare benefit coverage.

In most cases, your hospital bill does not include any professional services rendered by your personal physician or consulting physicians. You may receive a separate bill from your physician or consulting physician for their services. Scotland County Hospital’s financial counselors are available to assist you with financial arrangements or concerns. Please call 660-465-8511.

Healthcare payment in the United States is extraordinarily complex. Healthcare providers bill for their services, with the amount of money they receive depending on which insurance company or which government program is responsible to pay the cost of the given patient’s care. In addition, individual patients face different out-of-pocket expenses depending on the details of their insurance coverage (details that change from year to year) and depending on what time of year they are receiving care (whether earlier in the year when they haven’t paid off their deductible, or later in the year, when they may or may not have done so).
