Good Faith Estimate notice
Federal law gives self-pay patients the right to know, in writing and in advance, what their care is expected to cost. Here is what that means at Attuna.
Your right to a Good Faith Estimate
Under the federal No Surprises Act, people who are uninsured or who choose to pay for care themselves have the right to a written Good Faith Estimate of expected charges before they receive care. Because Attuna is a self-pay practice, this right applies to every patient here.
How it works at this practice
Fees are discussed openly before anything is scheduled, and every patient receives a written Good Faith Estimate of expected charges before care begins. You can also ask for a Good Faith Estimate at any time before scheduling, and one will be provided in writing.
Your rights under the estimate
- You can ask for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule anything, and whenever your care plan changes.
- Keep a copy of your estimate; it is the document your final bill is measured against.
- If you are billed substantially more than your Good Faith Estimate, federal law gives you the right to dispute the bill through a patient-provider dispute resolution process.
