During your stay at Saint Peter’s, there may be times when your physician will want to send you to another facility, either for special tests, procedures and/or evaluations. This will require transportation by an ambulance.
The fee for this round-trip transportation will be included in your hospital bill only if you are a Medicare or Medicaid recipient. If you are not covered under Medicare or Medicaid, the ambulance fee will be billed separately to you or your health insurance company.
If you are discharged and use the ambulance for transportation to your home or to another hospital, this one-way transportation will be billed directly by the ambulance company to your health insurance company. You will be responsible for any fees that they do not cover.
