INSURANCE RESPONSIBILITY
It is the sole responsibility of the guarantor to know what their insurance benefits are and whether or not their policy is in effect. American Mental Health Centers makes every effort to verify the insurance and obtain benefits from the insurance company. None of our employees or affiliates are held responsible for knowing what a client’s insurance will or will not cover. This includes benefits that may have been quoted by the insurance company.
Our business office will bill your insurance as a courtesy to you and make every effort to obtain payment but any amount that is not paid by the insurance is the responsibility of the client and/or the guarantor. Benefit quotations from the insurance company may only reflect coverage charges and not 100 percent of the billed charges and are subject to the member’s eligibility at the time that the benefits were requested. And quotations are not a guarantee of benefit coverage or member eligibility until the actual insurance payment for services is received. All anticipated uninsured or non-covered charges and projected co-payments are expected to be paid upon admission. Unpaid amounts will be referred to a collection agency at 30 days past due with all interest and legal fees being the responsibility of the debtor/guarantor.
PATIENT RIGHTS POLICY
In accordance with HIPPA regulations and other confidentiality agreements, American Mental Health Centers can neither confirm nor deny the residency of a patient at any of our facilities unless the patient has put your name on their consent for release form. In addition to this, patient’s access to phone and visitation privileges will depend on their phase within their treatment and whether or not they have properly followed that treatment plan. Off-site visitation rights can be given or taken away according to the client’s behavior and if they have properly followed their program. Our site operates on a pass request system for visitation in order to protect the privacy of our patients. These passes will be reviewed and approved according to an assessment of the client’s stability.
