Insurance/Network Listing

The INSTITUTE FOR ORTHOPAEDIC SURGERY is an accredited hospital and is completely separate from the Orthopaedic Institute of Ohio, which is the orthopedic surgeons' office practice. Any insurance information should be given to both places and you will receive a bill from both facilities.

Our billing/insurance specialists will be calling your insurance company to check eligibility for your surgery/procedure and we recommend you do the same. Normally we bill your insurance company direct as a courtesy to you. After we bill them, we ask that if you haven't heard from them in 30 days that you follow-up with a phone call to them. The person who signs the assignment of benefits at the time of registration is the person responsible for the bill.

You will have the option to pay your account in cash, check or credit card (Visa or MasterCard).

We want you to be aware that you may receive FOUR separate bills for your surgery/procedure.

• 1st bill - From the INSTITUTE FOR ORTHOPAEDIC SURGERY.
• 2nd bill - From the physician's office.
• 3rd bill - From the anesthesiologist.
• 4th bill - From Lima Pathology if a specimen was sent.
