UNDERSTANDING YOUR HOSPITAL BILL
Thank you for choosing Salem Hospital. We are dedicated to providing you with the finest in healthcare services. We understand that
healthcare billing is a complicated process that can leave you with many questions. Therefore, we want to answer some of the more
commonly asked questions.
Health Insurance:
Health insurance helps with many of the financial burdens of illness or injury, but it usually does not cover the entire bill. Each time you
visit Salem Hospital, you will be asked to furnish us with your current insurance information, including any secondary insurance or
Medicare supplemental insurance that you have. We can assist you by filing your claim with your insurance company, but you are
ultimately responsible for your account. So, it is important to stay involved with your insurance company. You are expected to pay any
deductible, co-pay and/or coinsurance amounts, and any charges not covered under your insurance. If you have additional insurance
information that has not been billed, please contact us at (503) 581-1747.
Payment Options:
Payment for services is due upon receipt of the initial bill for self-pay accounts and upon receipt of the initial bill for patient responsibility
after an insurance company has paid. Payment options include: cash, check, money order, debit card, American Express, Visa, Discover
and Master Card. At any time you feel that you may have difficulty paying your hospital bill, you are invited to call us. A Patient Service
Team representative can discuss payment alternatives that are available to you, including extended payment arrangements, financial
assistance, and charity care considerations.
Financial Assistance (Charity Care):
Financial assistance (charity care) are a part of the services provided by Salem Hospital. For those unable to pay for necessary medical
services, every effort will be made to assist you in obtaining help from public agencies. Those who do not qualify for public funding may be
considered for charity care. Sources of income and a financial statement may be required in order to verify need. Any patient may apply.
Please contact our Patient Service Team at the number listed below for assistance. We can only assist you in applying for financial
assistance or establishing a payment arrangement if you contact us.
Billing Cycle:
An account number is assigned for each date of service. Once an account becomes patient responsibility, you will receive a statement
showing the balance due for each date of service. For your convenience, accounts that become the patient's responsibility within 30 days
of one another will automatically combine together and you will receive one statement for multiple accounts. If another account becomes
patient responsibility outside of those 30 days, it will not automatically combine with the other accounts. However, you can contact our
Patient Service Team and request to set up a payment arrangement, and request that all accounts be combined together.
A representative from our Patient Service Team is available to assist you with any questions concerning your hospital bill. Please call
(503) 581-1747 between the hours of 8:00AM and 7:00PM, Monday through Thursday and 8:00AM and 5:00PM on Friday, or visit us in
person at 3300 State Street in Salem between the hours of 8:00 am and 5:00 pm, Monday through Friday.
