After surgery, Seaside Surgery Center will submit your bill to your insurance company. You will receive a separate bill from your doctor, anesthesiologist and/or pathologist.

Out-of-Network

A patient receiving treatment at our surgery center under insurance with which our facility is out-of-network may be eligible to receive an adjustment to their assigned out-of-network patient liability, assuming our facility is not prohibited from offering out-of-network adjustments under state/Federal laws or your insurance company’s provisions. If not prohibited, the application of any out-of-network discount is subject to vary based on a patient’s benefit coverage. Accounts which become delinquent may have the adjustment disallowed.
