Estimating Your Healthcare Expense

Hospital bills vary greatly depending on the type of service and resources utilized during your hospital stay. We can help you to estimate your expense by taking into account the average expense for the service that you are planning, as well as our agreement with your insurance (if any) and your current insurance benefits (if any). Please contact a financial counselor at 304-598-1560 to receive an estimate.
