Let us work with you to keep healthcare affordable and
hassle-free
At Tri Valley Health System, we want your experience
with us to be smooth and trouble-free. That’s why work with you and your
insurance company to get you the best care, coverage and service possible.
Below is information on our billing and insurance
procedures. Please take a moment to review them.
Insurance information
Bring insurance
information each time you visit
Tri
Valley
To simplify registration, you
will be asked to provide current insurance information on each visit to Tri
Valley Health System. You will also be asked to verify any changes to your
name, address or phone number on all of your visits to Tri Valley Health
System.
Payment Options
We can help keep
healthcare affordable with time payment options
We understand healthcare can put a strain on your
budget, and at Tri Valley, we want to do everything we can
to help. After your insurance company processes your accounts, you will
receive a statement from Tri Valley Health System detailing any unpaid
balance. You will then have 30 days to pay your account in full or set up a
time payment plan account.
Your payment amount will be based on your account
balance. Depending on what that amount is, your payments will be calculated
over a 12-month or 24-month period. You will receive a statement each month
reflecting the current balance with a section to tear off and send in with
your payment.
If you are experiencing a financial hardship, talk to
us. You can discuss your situation with our Patient Accounting Office and we
will do very our best to make payment arrangements that are acceptable to
both you and Tri Valley.
Each situation is reviewed on an individual basis and kept completely
confidential.
For more information, contact the Patient Accounting
Office at 308-697-3155 or 800-335-9898. You are also welcome to stop by the
office at 702 Patterson Street in downtown Cambridge. Address
correspondence to: Patient Accounting Office, Tri Valley Health System, P.O. Box 488,
Cambridge,
NE 69022.
Billing
Let us help with
billing your insurance company
Once you have provided Tri Valley Health System with
current insurance information, we will bill all insurance claims on your
behalf. Remember, however, that your insurance policy coverage is a contract
between you and your insurance carrier, so the ultimate responsibility for
payment rests with you.
Insurance copayments and deductibles are due at the time
of service. If you are unable to make payment in full at the time of
service, please notify the receptionist prior to your appointment. You will
be referred to the business office so other payment arrangements can be
made.
Payments may be made by cash, check, Visa or MasterCard.
Advance directive
Take the time to
decide healthcare issues in advance
It is easier to accomplish healthcare decisions when a
person is well and can speak for themselves. However, severe illness or
injury can leave a person unable to communicate their wishes. In situations
such as these, advance directives are invaluable to the person, their family
and the medical team.
An advance directive is a written statement that
documents your healthcare decisions or appoints another person to make
decisions on your behalf. Advance directives include Living Wills and
Durable Power Attorney for Health Care.
Tri Valley Health System honors your wishes and works
with you and your physician to make sure the directives are followed. For
more information, contact your attorney or the Social Work Department at Tri
Valley Health System.
