Additional safety measures and protocols are in place to ensure our facilities remain the safest places to be in our communities during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. As another layer of protection, all persons entering our facilities – patients, their caregivers/guardians, and employees – are screened for symptoms at the door, have their temperature checked, and are masked for source control. Glacial Ridge has separate areas for ill and well patients in order to provide the best and safest level of care for all.

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.
