Your Right to a Good Faith Estimate

You are entitled to a Good Faith Estimate that outlines the expected cost of your medical care.

Under federal law, healthcare providers must provide an estimated bill for medical items and services if you are uninsured or not using insurance.

• You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency services, including related expenses such as medical tests, prescription medications, equipment, and hospital fees.

• Your healthcare provider must give you a written Good Faith Estimate at least one business day before your service or item. You may also request an estimate before scheduling care.

• If your final bill exceeds the Good Faith Estimate by $400 or more, you have the right to dispute the charges.
