Your physician's office will schedule your surgery with the hospital.
If you are scheduled for Outpatient Surgery you will not be staying overnight in the hospital.
If you are scheduled in our A. M. Admission program, you will not be in the hospital before your surgery, but will require hospitalization after your surgery.
Pre-registration
Before your surgery, you may receive a telephone call from the admissions department to obtain preregistration information.
Your upcoming procedure requires approval and an authorization number from your insurance company. Please obtain that number prior to your Interview & Assessment appointment and bring the number with you to your appointment. If you do not have the authorization number, your service may be delayed or rescheduled until we can obtain the number. Please be aware that unauthorized services can become your responsibility.
