Billing & Financial Assistance

We realize this can be a stressful time for you and your family. We particularly understand how frustrating it can be when you’re in a hospital as an inpatient, outpatient or emergency department patient and you’re not familiar with our billing processes.

That’s why we want to help you understand the issues involved in paying bills as well as the differences between bills you receive from Bayhealth and other providers.

Because billing is handled separately for hospital charges and doctor fees, it’s important that you take a moment to read this information carefully. Also be sure to keep this information with your other financial or health records, as it is a handy resource.
