Heartland Surgery Center Financial Policies & Fees

We will file claims to your insurance company and do all that we can to assist you. It is important that you understand the benefits and the requirements of your policy. Some insurance companies require pre­authorization by the physician before surgery. Please review the requirements of your policy and verify that this process has been completed.
You are responsible for understanding your benefits, the terms of your policy and are responsible for the balance of your account.

You can expect a statement from us after we have heard from your insurance company. Payment in full is required within 30 days. For your convenience, we accept Care Credit (Please visit www.carecredit.com to apply for an account), VISA, MasterCard, Discover and American Express. If you require financial assistance or have questions related to insurance and billing, please contact HSC at 308-865-2670 and ask for patient accounts.

WORKERS' COMPENSATION: Heartland Surgery Center obtains authorization for surgical services before the procedure takes place. We will submit a claim to the workers' compensation carrier on your behalf.

MEDICAID: If you are covered under Medicaid or Medicaid Managed Care Plans (Nebraska or Kansas), a claim will be submitted for you. We will not send any statements to you unless there is a required copay for services.

What Our Patients Say

"Everything was very timely, yet handled in a very warm, personable manner."

What Our Patients Say

"Your staff is always very courteous and helpful. Everyone from beginning to end knows their role well and completes their role well. This is my third visit to your facility - twice for my son (which includes this time) and once for my husband. I feel very confident in the care my family receives there and I appreciate how the family waiting is informed. My son who is 15 was very well taking care of - everyone helps put us at ease by their attention, friendliness, and excellent care." 

What Our Patients Say

"The relaxed yet professional demeanor of all staff - great teamwork and a definite sense of caring amongst staff members. Definitely a family vibe."

What Our Patients Say

"The friendliness of the entire staff, the comfortable atmosphere and the positive experience of the surgical procedure itself. I received great care before and after the procedure." 

What Our Patients Say

"Didn't feel like we were a number, we weren't rushed in and out. The nurses, doctors, and staff were all super nice, welcoming and caring about my son and his health." 

What Our Patients Say

"Even though I went in alone for this procedure and was nervous, they made me feel like I wasn?t so alone and someone was close by every step of the way. This is by far the best staff I have ever encountered at a medical facility. Everyone worked well together for the comfort and care of the patients, everyone was helpful and focused on the patient?s care. They were all upbeat and very good at their roles. I am thoroughly impressed, and while I would never elect to have surgery, this is the place I would go." 

What Our Patients Say

"The desk receptionist was pleasant and courteous. My husband approached while I was checking in and she acknowledged him to make sure he was with me. She was protecting my privacy- she was kind and tactful. I was impressed by how well the pre-op team worked together, pitching in and helping one another."
