A good faith estimate should include expected charges for the scheduled health care items and services, including facilities fees, hospital fees, and room and board provided by the provider or facility. Good faith estimates only list expected charges for a single provider or facility.
A diagnosis is required on the Good Faith Estimate once it's saved to the client's Overview page. There isn't a way to remove it from this document.
Client signatures aren't required on either the consent document or the Good Faith Estimate. However, if the client chooses not to sign, the provider can opt out of providing care and the client can proceed to find an in-network provider instead.
The good faith estimate must include a number of disclaimers. For example, it must state that the estimate is based on information known at the time it was created. Therefore, it won't include any costs for unanticipated items or services that are not reasonably expected and that could occur due to unforeseen events.
If you are insured, you also may request a good faith estimate of the amount you will be billed for non-emergency items and services that you might like to schedule.
