Payment
Policy
Settlement
of all financial matters is done in the Cashiering Department
located at the Upper Ground Floor.
Payment
for medical services is in Philippine Peso, and can be made
in cash, Manager’s/ Cashier’s check, major credit
card, or by wire transfer (on a case to case basis). The hospital
may also accept US Dollar bills.
Payment
for outpatient medical services can be made at one of several
cashier points located on the Upper Ground and Lower Ground
floors only and is required before the services are rendered.
Payment for inpatient medical services is performed on the
Upper Ground Floor, Cashier Section. Our Financial Counselor
will instruct the patient on all the formalities after being
admitted. Upon admission, a deposit of up to 100% of the total
expected cost of treatment is required and can be settled
in the Cashier Section located on the Upper Ground Floor.
Insurance/ HMOs
If the patient intends to use insurance, HMO Health Plan or
his employer to pay for the medical treatment, the following
criteria shall apply:
1. Please verify whether the insurance company, HMO or Company
the patient intends to use is accredited with Asian Hospital
and Medical Center.
2. Under normal circumstances, private insurance companies
DO NOT cover cosmetic surgery or medical procedures deemed
‘elective’, especially if the patient is traveling
overseas for treatment.
3. Read the policy carefully to see that the patient’s
medical expenses are reimbursable.
4. If the patient’s insurer, HMO or employer agrees
to pay for treatment, they will need to supply a Letter of
Authorization or Letter of Guarantee issued in favor of Asian
Hospital and Medical Center, detailing the terms and conditions
of coverage. The patient will also have to acknowledge the
hospital’s Billing Statement and the Doctor’s
Professional Fee.
NOTE:
If Asian Hospital and Medical Center has an established
agreement with the patient’s insurer, then payment conditions
will be determined by that agreement. If not, the patient
will be asked to pay for treatment first and then submit a
claim to the patient’s insurer for reimbursement.
