Understanding How We Bill at Pacific Surgical Center
Pacific Surgical Center will gather information regarding your insurance and determine what portion of our facility fee the provider will pay and what portion will be your responsibility.
Our facility charge covers pre-operative evaluation, equipment, personnel, most supplies and medications, and use of the operating and recovery rooms.
We accept cash, checks, credit cards and care credit.
Because our patients may receive separate bills for lab work, anesthesia, and physicians’ services, we will direct all questions regarding those bills for service to the appropriate offices.
