Billing, Insurance, and Financial Assistance

HealthAlliance of the Hudson Valley is here to help YOU. As part of the HealthAlliance of the Hudson Valley’s commitment to providing quality, patient focused and compassionate care, we strive to help our patients understand our billing process and payment policies. As a result, we’ve provided a blank bill with definitions (in red) for each section to help you better understand your bill.

The HealthAlliance of the Hudson Valley hospitals appreciate your cooperation with our payment policies. Complete and accurate information should be presented at the time of registration. If insurance information cannot be provided at that time, patients should contact the Central Registration Department at 845.334.4259, as soon as possible. Upon discharge, the hospital will bill your insurance carrier for covered services rendered. Depending on what services you receive from the hospital, you also may receive a separate bill from your private physician, specialist, radiologist or laboratory. Learn more about this in the HealthAlliance Disclosure. Visit our insurance information page for more details and a list of insurance providers accepted by HealthAlliance.
