Good Faith Estimate

You have the right to receive a "Good Faith Estimate" explaining how much your medical care will cost. Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don't have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services.
 

• You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees.

• If you schedule your service at least three days in advance, make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your healthcare provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service.

• If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.

• Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.

You Have the Right to a Cost Estimate.

If you do not have health insurance or do not wish to use your health insurance, you are entitled to know what PPSO will charge you for the care you seek. PPSO will email you a Good Faith Estimate of charges after you schedule your appointment. You also can request to pick up your Good Faith Estimate directly from a PPSO Health Center.

What if I am not ready to book an appointment?

If you are not ready to schedule an appointment, we will provide a Good Faith Estimate of charges if you call to request one. The estimate will include the care you ask to receive along with care related to those services.

What if I need additional care during my visit?

If you want additional care during the appointment, the total cost will likely be more than the estimate we send you.

What if it is a last-minute appointment?

If your scheduled appointment is less than 3 days away, PPSO will provide a verbal estimate of charges, but you will not receive a written estimate prior to the appointment.

 

Note: PPSO discounts still apply based on need and age.
