Patient Pricing

Yes, this is extremely confusing. At Delhi Hospital & Clinics we have a team of financial assistance and counselors to help current and prospective patients understand their potential out-of-pocket costs. Our team makes every attempt to personalize these quotes to enable patients to make informed decisions and understand their potential financial liability, both before and after their care. We also offer financial assistance and discounts for patients who have no insurance or, for patients who qualify, help them enroll in available and appropriate Medicare and Medicaid Program. To speak with a staff member about a personalized out-of-pocket estimate specific to your visit and care, contact our Patient Assistance Program at 318-878-6218.

The prices that hospitals are required to publish may not reflect the price you will pay. As an individual patient, your responsibility would depend on your insurance plan, coverage, deductibles, co-insurance and other factor.

In October 2018, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) established a new requirement that hospitals post a list of standard charges for hospital items and services by Jan. 1, 2019, as well as diagnosis-related group (DRG) average charges, on the Internet. The rule requires hospitals to list their charges, which are different from the amounts that either patients or insurers actually pay

In November 2019, CMS added a requirement that hospitals post a machine readable file containing gross charges, discounted cash prices, payer-specific negotiated charges, and de-identified minimum and maximum negotiated charges. This requirement went into effect on January 1, 2021.

Yes, we have complied with this new regulation by posting a machine readable file above. You can also view more about our Pricing Transparency by clicking here.

In addition to the steps CMS has required us to take, we are committed to helping patients and their families make informed decisions about every aspect of their care, including the out-of-pocket costs of their care. We have a team of financial advisors available to help you with this. To speak with an advisor about a personalized out-of-pocket financial responsibility estimate specific to your visit and care, contact us at 318-878-5171.
