YOU HAVE A CHOICE

Deciding where to have your surgery is an important step in your healthcare journey. Whether you’ve consulted with your doctor or a specialist, having the right information can help you make the best decision for your needs.
 

When considering your options, you may choose:

  • A hospital setting for your procedure.

  • An ambulatory surgery center (ASC), such as Copper Ridge Surgery Center, a facility designed to safely provide same-day surgical care, including diagnostic and preventative procedures, outside of the hospital.
     

Questions to Ask Your Physician

Start by asking your doctor:
“Which facility is the most appropriate for me and my procedure?”
If the answer is “Either one is appropriate,” consider these key steps:
 

  1. Get Your Procedure Details
    Request the name(s) of your procedure(s) and the CPT code(s) – a 5-digit code used to estimate your out-of-pocket costs.
     

  2. Understand Your Insurance Responsibility
    Call the 800 number on the back of your insurance card to ask about your deductible and coinsurance responsibility.
     

  3. Compare Costs
    With your insurance card in hand, call both the hospital and ASC of your choice to request an estimate of out-of-pocket costs for your procedure.
