Insurance

Your co-pay, deductible and/or co-insurance are due at time of service. Payments can be made by cash, debit cards, personal check, traveler’s check or credit card (Visa, MasterCard, Discover or American Express). If the hospital does not receive the exact amount due at time of service, a deposit will be required. The deposit may vary depending on the particular type of service.

Self-Pay/Private Pay

Seven Rivers Regional, as a licensed health care facility in the State of Florida, gives notice pursuant to Chapter 395.301 Florida Statutes, that it is required prior to provision of non-emergency medical services to give patients written, good-faith estimates of reasonably anticipated charges for their treatment. Estimates must be provided within seven business days after receipt of written request by the patient or their legal guardian(s). Patients are also entitled to notifications of revisions to the estimates. Estimates may be the average charge(s) for the anticipated procedures and actual charges may exceed the estimates. To obtain an estimate, please call 352.795.8498.

Pre-Certification

If your insurance requires a pre-certification, we will attempt to obtain all required clinical information from your physician to obtain the authorization from your insurance company. If you have any questions regarding pre-certification, please let us know. If we are unable to obtain a pre-certification, we may need to cancel or reschedule your service(s).

Verification of income and financial information is required. Please contact a patient account representative at 352.795.8318 or 352.795.6560, ext. 4009.
