Some of these doctors may not be in the same health plan networks as the hospital.

Ask the doctor admitting you to the hospital or scheduling your outpatient care if they participate in your insurance plan鈥檚 network. If a doctor or hospital is not in your plan鈥檚 network, your insurance provider will require you to pay more.

New York State Hospital Facility Fee Notice

Out-of-Pocket Costs

Out-of-pocket costs for healthcare services may vary significantly across health systems, even for common procedures.

For this reason, the listing may not be a useful tool for accurately understanding what patients and insurers pay for care.

Paying Your Hospital Bill

Tisch Hospital, 嘿嘿视频 Hospital鈥擝rooklyn, 嘿嘿视频 Hospital鈥擫ong Island, 嘿嘿视频 Orthopedic Hospital, and the Family Health Centers at 嘿嘿视频 will send you a bill for inpatient and outpatient services, listing the charges for the care you received.
