Does any hospital take any insurance?

No. If the hospital has a contract with the insurance company, they will take care of filing the claim. If not, they will bill you and you will have to get reimbursement from the insurance company. Also, if it is a contracting provider, they have agreed to a total amount to be charged for various procedures and if the bill exceeds that amount they will write off the remainder. If they are not contracting, the insurance will still pay only the amount they think is a fair charge, less your deductible or copay, and if the hospital bill is more, you are responsible for paying the rest.


Can a hospital send a bill to collections before the insurance company the hospital is a preferred provider for settles with the hospital?

Yes the hospital may send you to collections before your insurance settles on an account. In most states the hospital is not actually required to even file your insurance, however, they do as a courtesy. Even when the hospital does file your insurance if they make a mistake and your claim is denied based on this mistake they can not be held liable and are not required to fix the problem. It is now the patients responsibilty to get the itemized statements and get them to the insurance company.

Left hospital without telling the nurses and didnt remember until half way through the nyte how is this going to affect you presesntly or in the future?

If you are ADMITTED to a hospital and leave without a doctors discharge order and paperwork, it is considered AMA (against medical advice). In many cases, your insurance can refuse to pay your hospital bill. If it was an honest mistake, call and/or return to the hospital and get your discharge paperwork in order. Explain that it was an honest mistake and you may avoid insurance problems down the road. GOOD LUCK! <<<ADR>>>
