Join us for a complimentary lunch and learn about Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD), a common but treatable condition. It happens when a muscle at the end of your esophagus does not close properly. This allows stomach contents to leak back, or reflux, into the esophagus and irritate it. Dr. Elizabeth Colsen will discuss the difference between heartburn and GERD, symptoms of GERD, why you should not ignore them, and treatment options.
Seating is limited so please RSVP. Invite a friend to join you, and call Joanna at 334.5539 by Monday, November 12 to reserve your spot. There is no cost to attend.

Glacial Ridge Health System Chargemaster
Beginning January 1, 2019, the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services and Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services are requiring hospitals and health systems to post their “current, standard charges.”
Hospital charges are the amount a hospital bills an insurer for a service. For most patients, hospitals are reimbursed at a level well below charges. Patients covered by commercial insurance products have negotiated rates with hospitals. Patients covered by Medicare or Medicaid programs have hospital reimbursement rates determined by federal and state governments.
Hospital charges may include bundled procedures, personnel, services and supplies. An example would be room rates that include the space, equipment, nursing personnel and supplies.
When a patient has the opportunity to shop for medical services, he or she should contact his or her own insurance carrier to understand which costs will be covered and which will be the patient’s responsibility.
Patients should contact the hospital directly for any further details.
