The St.Vincent mission is to improve the health status of the individuals and communities we serve, with special concern for the sick and poor. To that end, St.Vincent is committed to caring for all people, regardless of their ability to pay for services.
If financial concerns arise during your hospital stay, or you feel you may be unable to pay for part or all of your medical services, you may contact a Financial Counselor during your stay at 338-2200.
We will bill you for any remaining balances due after your insurance has processed your bill. You will have 30 days to pay the balance. For your convenience we accept Visa, MasterCard or Discover. We provide payment options and also participate in a number of programs design to assist individuals and families with healthcare financial needs. You will also receive separate bills from any physicians, such as your attending physician, anesthesiologist or radiologist who provide services during your admission.
If you have any questions regarding your billing or insurance coverage after you have gone home, please call our Customer Service Center at (317) 338-8035, or if long distance, call toll- free (800) 582-8258. You may also visit us online.
