Provide complete and accurate information when you register, and expect to verify your name and date of birth throughout your stay with us.
Correct identification of surgery site
Actively participate in confirming your identity and type of surgery.
Medication safety
Let us know ALL your medications, prescription and over-the-counter.
Risk of infection
Inform your care team if you have a fever, cough, or rash.

Pricing Transparency

We want to empower you with valuable information to help you and your family make important healthcare decisions. With this tool, you'll be able to find the general price estimate of the procedure you plan to have. Keep in mind that procedure costs can vary and do not include costs charged by others outside the hospital who are involved in a patient’s procedure, such as physicians, radiologists, and anesthesiologists.
