How Sun Health’s Hospital Negotiation Services Work
Navigating hospital bills can be a daunting task, especially when unexpected medical expenses arise. At Sun Health, we strive to make healthcare more affordable and accessible for our members. One of the key services we offer is hospital bill negotiation. Here’s an in-depth look at how Sun Health’s hospital negotiation services work and how you can benefit from them.
Understanding Hospital Negotiations
Hospital negotiation is the process of working directly with healthcare providers and facilities to lower the cost of your medical bills. Our team of experienced negotiators liaises with hospitals to reduce your out-of-pocket expenses, making healthcare more affordable for you and your family.
How the Process Works
- Receive Your Bill
- After you receive treatment at a hospital, you will get a bill detailing the services provided and the associated costs.
- Submit Your Bill
- Submit your hospital bill to Sun Health. This can typically be done online by email. Ensure that all details and charges are clearly visible.
- Assessment by Our Team
- Our negotiation experts will thoroughly review your bill for accuracy and potential savings. They check for common billing errors, such as duplicate charges or incorrect coding, which can inflate your bill.
- Negotiation with the Hospital
- Once the bill is assessed, our team will contact the hospital’s billing department to negotiate on your behalf. This involves discussing possible discounts, payment plans, or other financial assistance options the hospital may offer.
- Receive the Adjusted Bill
- After successful negotiations, you will receive a new, adjusted bill reflecting the reduced charges. Our team will explain the changes and the new amount you owe.
