About Your Quote
Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance, or who are not using insurance, an estimate of the bill for medical items, therapy cost and services.
Know Your Rights
You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected therapy cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees.
If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.
When getting your Good Faith Estimate, be sure to:
- Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item.You can also ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service.
- Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
