Billing Policies

At Lincoln Surgical Hospital, we understand how overwhelming it can be to deal with health issues and billing issues on top of that. We know that your medical bill and insurance details can get confusing. It is our goal to make the process as easy as possible.

Hospital Statements

Hospital bills are based on the type and complexity of the care you received. The amount you owe may include insurance deductibles, non-covered services, co-payments or co-insurance.

We will file a claim with your insurance carrier. For certain types of insurance coverage, if there is a balance due after your insurance company has processed your claim, or if you do not have insurance, we will mail a statement that shows the balance due after insurance payments.

Payment Expectations

Account balances are to be paid 30 days from the statement date. If you are unable to pay in full by that date, please contact a Patient Accounts Representative at (402) 484-9025 to make payment arrangements. Lincoln Surgical Hospital offers a prompt pay discount to our patients who pay promptly. If your balance is paid within 20 days of receipt of the first statement, a 20% prompt pay discount can be given.

This payment policy excludes procedures not medically necessary. These are due at the time of service.

Professional Fees

As is customary, profession fees for your surgeon and other hospital-based physicians will be billed and mailed separately. For example, you may receive separate bills from radiology, pathology and anesthesia in addition to the bill from your surgeon. Each of these bills must be paid directly to the physician or business indicated on the bill. If you have any questions about the charges, please call the number listed on the bill.
