Insurance
Your insurance information will be verified prior to or upon your arrival for services. Please provide any necessary authorizations and/or referrals at the time of service. If the insurance information, authorizations, or referrals are not provided at the time of service, you will be required to sign a financial responsibility form agreeing to pay for the services not covered or denied by your insurance.
If you are insured and undergoing a procedure, the Precertification/Preregistration Department will contact your insurance company prior to services being rendered to secure an estimate of your unmet deductibles and co-insurance amounts. You will then be contacted to make payment arrangements in advance of your procedure.
The final bill for remaining coinsurances and other balances will not be due until MedStar Health has received all payments from your insurance company. You will be billed a consolidated patient balance statement (hospital and the majority of all MedStar-employed physicians). In addition, your insurance carrier(s) will send you statements (explanations of benefits) of their payments made to MedStar Health. These statements also outline any amount for which you may be responsible. Please call your insurance carrier or employer's benefits office for details about your insurance or benefit policy coverage.
If you do not have insurance, you will be notified by your Physician’s office and/or the Precertification/Preregistration Department of the estimated costs and you will be expected to make payment arrangements prior to the time of service.
If you have questions about what services are covered, please check with your health plan or your company's benefits office. They will have the most detailed information about your coverage.

How can I tell what my insurance covered?

Will all of my MedStar Health bills be on one statement?

How do I know that my online payment session is secure?
Most browsers will give you a message box stating when you are going into a secure session.
Internet Explorer uses a small padlock icon on the bottom right side of the browser window. When there is a secure session in place, the padlock will appear locked.
Another indication that your browser is operating in secure mode can be found in the website address. The address will begin with "https" - the 's' in 'https' stands for secure./p>

What are my obligations to help maintain secure transactions with the ePayments service?
You are responsible for not giving out your bank account information, bank routing information or account information. Be sure to close your browser immediately after you are finished making your payment(s) or updating your account information.

When setting up my payment method, where can I find my bank's routing transit number and checking account number?
The routing transit number can be found on the lower left hand side of your check. The checking account number is to the right of the routing number. An illustration is provided when adding or modifying a bank account in Payment Methods.
