Preparation for your outpatient procedure

Many procedures require special preparations that may begin a day or more before your actual procedure. Please contact your physician's office for complete instructions. The office staff will let you know if you will need assistance following the procedure.

Payment Arrangements

The hospital will file your insurance claim for outpatient hospital charges. In addition to your hospital bill, your doctor and any specialists called for consultation will mail you separate bills. For example, if you have surgery, your anesthesiologist and other specialists such as radiologists or pathologists will also send bills.

If you have specific questions following your procedure, please call the Business Office at 713-394-6807.
