MVH offering cost estimator for services
When planning for any medical procedure, the unknown can be stressful. People rarely know what they will pay for a procedure until after they have it.
Monongahela Valley Hospital is helping to take the stress out of health care choices by offering a medical cost estimator on its website. The free tool is available for anyone who would like to receive an estimate before having a procedure.
With many people facing higher deductibles and paying more out of their pockets for health care, the estimator enables people to do their homework and gather information about MVH that can be used when comparing the cost of procedures among local hospitals and health systems.
By choosing a procedure or service, then answering a few questions, participants will receive a cost associated with the selected health care service. The estimator provides a true and accurate picture of a person’s out-of-pocket costs for financial planning purposes. The cost given is an estimate and not a guarantee of payment or benefits. To use the medical cost estimator, visit MonValleyHospital.com/Medical-Cost-Estimator.
