Financial Arrangements

Arrangements for payment of your hospital bill are made at the time of admission. We require identification, insurance and membeship cards every time you register at Moberly Regional Medical Center. All information will be handled confidentially. As a courtesy, we will submit your hospital bill to your insurance companies for payment. Depending upon your coverage, you may be required to pay a deductible or room differential charge based upon the length of stay required by your physician. However, you are ultimately responsible for payment of your account.

Certain employers and insurance carriers require that an individual's need to be admitted to a hospital be certified before admission, to determine the medical necessity of admission. Failure to obtain pre-certification may result in penalties or denial of payment by your carrier. It is your responsibility to determine if your employer or carrier requires pre-certification, and if so to obtain this with your physician's assistance. Please bring completed forms with you when you are admitted.

Under Medicare, you are responsible for paying any deductibles and coinsurance amounts that may be due. For patients admitted under both Medicare and Medicaid, the deductibles will be paid by Medicaid. These insurers do not cover private rooms.

If you are staying overnight, your room assignment will be determined by the kind of medical care you are to receive and room availability. As your condition improves, you may be transferred to another unit in the hospital.

If you have no insurance or anticipate a problem in paying your account because of low income or loss of employment, pleae call MRMC Patient Financial Services at (660) 269-3038.
