authorizations are obtained.

Pre-Service (Step 5)
5. The patient is notified of their financial responsibility including copayments and health plan deductibles, and their
eligibility for financial assistance is assessed.
Time of Service (steps)
1. For scheduled patients, a final account review is completed prior to the patient's arrival.
Ideally, the scheduled patient arrives at the service unit where the pre-registration record is activated, consents are
signed, and co-payments and/or other agreed upon amounts are collected.
Positive patient identification is completed, and the patient is given an armband which corresponds to the activated
account number.
Alternatively, scheduled, pre-processed patients can report to a designated "express arrival" desk located in a
centralized access area upon their arrival.
Time of Service (steps)
2. For unscheduled patients, comprehensive registration and financial processing is completed at the time-of-service.
This process mirrors the work that was completed for the scheduled patients prior to service.
