West Bay Surgery Center
Billing & insurance

Payment options.

We let our patients know their financial obligations before surgery so there are no surprises or misunderstandings.

Thank you for choosing West Bay Surgery Center for your surgery. We strive to make your experience a pleasant and efficient one.

West Bay Surgery Center collects any co-payments, un-met deductibles, and co-insurance amounts on the day of surgery. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to call our office at (727) 585-9500.

Please note that co-insurance amounts collected are an estimate; your total financial obligation will be determined by your insurance company and will appear on the explanation of benefits. If our estimated amount is less, we will bill you the difference. If our estimated amount is more, we will refund you the difference.

We encourage you to contact your surgeon, anesthesia group, and your insurance company if you have any questions about your financial obligations. Please make sure your authorization/pre-certification for your surgery is on file prior to surgery.

West Bay Surgery Center

If you do not have insurance, you are responsible for the entire surgeon, facility, and anesthesia fees. You will need to arrange payment with each entity separately — the surgery center cannot accept payment on behalf of another entity.

We will call you prior to surgery with the amount due on the day of surgery. Checks should be made payable to West Bay Surgery Center. We accept cash, check, Visa, and Mastercard.

If you have not heard from us prior to the surgery date, we will not be collecting a co-pay on the day of the surgery. As a reminder, you are still responsible for any balance left by your insurance company(ies).

If you have other financial questions, please feel free to call us at (727) 585-9500. A discussion of financial matters can be uncomfortable. Our goal is to reduce or eliminate any additional stress in this area.
