Understanding Your Bill

Clinic Statement

The “Statement of Clinic Services” describes charges for services rendered by providers (physicians and/or other health care professionals) at Virginia Mason. If the services you receive are covered by insurance, your benefits will determine how much of the charge you will be required to pay out-of-pocket. Your Virginia Mason statement will reflect details of your visit, your payment(s) and any amount still outstanding.
