Shoppable Services – Updated July 1, 2023

As of January 1, 2021, The Centers for Medicare Services (CMS) requires that all hospitals provide a list of their “shoppable services.” CMS has defined a “shoppable service” as a service package that can be scheduled by a health care consumer in advance. Shoppable services are typically those that are routinely provided in non-urgent situations that do not require immediate action or attention to the patient, thus allowing patients to price shop and schedule a service at a time that is convenient for them.

Advanced Care Hospital of Montana does not provide any services that can be scheduled in advance. Please refer to Advanced Care Hospital of Montana‘s list of standard charges for charges related to those items and services provided to patients admitted as an inpatient to Advanced Care Hospital of Montana.

Requesting an estimate
Hospital prices are complex.  Some prices may change.  These lists do not represent what you will pay for healthcare services.  Each patient may receive a unique set of items and services based on their individual needs, making it difficult to estimate your out-of-pocket costs.  Your out-of-pocket costs may vary based on your health insurance plan, applicable deductible, coinsurance, copayments, and benefit limits.  We recommend that you contact your health insurance provider if you have specific questions about the out-of-pocket costs under your health insurance plan.  If you do not see a specific health insurance plan listed, our hospital may not have a contract with that particular plan.

Patients seeking a more accurate view of the potential costs of their care may request an estimate of anticipated charges by contacting us at 406.373.8000.

If you are not covered by health insurance, we encourage you to contact the hospital at the hospital number listed above to determine if you qualify for discounts and discuss payment options prior to receiving health care services from Advanced Care Hospital of Montana.

If you have any questions please contact us at chargemasterqueries@ernesthealth.com.
