In accordance with Florida law, the facility is required to let you know that you may or may not pay less for the Services at another facility or in another health care setting. Please know that your attending doctor who booked your procedure(s) at Facility may not be on the medical staff of such other facilities or health care setting. Furthermore, your attending physician who booked your procedures to be done at Facility, and other health care providers, such as anesthesiologists, intraoperative monitoring services, durable medical suppliers, and anatomical pathologists, some or all may provide services to you at Facility, are not a part of Facility’s fees and, if any of their services are provided to you while being a patient of Facility, the provider(s) will bill separately for their services rendered.
Patients and prospective patients may request from this facility and other health care providers a more personalized estimate of charges and other information. Patients and prospective patients should contact each health care practitioner who will provide services in the ASC to determine the health insurers and health maintenance organizations with which the health care practitioner participates as a network provider or preferred provider. Please see the list of providers associated with First Coast Surgery Center.
Pathology Reports and Providers
In the event a specimen was ordered to be taken and submitted for study, you may incur a charge related to that process billed by the Pathology Provider ordered/requested by your surgeon. The provider would submit to your insurance carrier/responsible party and you may have a financial responsibility/bill related to that expense. We primarily utilize the following Providers:
