yes they can as long as you siged the paper that states that it is ok to treat you Yes. Whether you can get out of paying because they didn't check with your insurance and inform you that it wasn't covered is a different question.

Is there financing available for gastric bypass?

All hospitals are different. If you have insurance, you will first want to contact your insurance company. If you do not have insurance you will want to contact the Dr. doing the surgery to find out if he/she offers financing and then what hospital the procedure will be done at and then contact the hospital. Good Luck.

Do you need liability insurance in a hospital to hold a weekly meeting when the hospital has already got insurance?

The hospital's insurance will protect the hospital from any liability caused by your meeting. However, the hospital or its insurer may not wish to assume the liability presented by your meeting and may require you to provide your own insurance with the hospital named as an additional insured. That way, the hospital and its insurer is protected in the event of a liability claim. Insurance of this type is expensive to purchase for a single meeting due to minimum premium rules. The cost could be as much as $500 or even more. If your intent is to hold many meetings, it may make sense to buy an annual policy. IN that way, you could provide a certificate of insurance to any place you hold a meeting during the course of the policy-- and the premium may not be much more than for a single meeting.

Can a hospital send a bill to collections before the insurance company the hospital is a preferred provider for settles with the hospital?

Yes the hospital may send you to collections before your insurance settles on an account. In most states the hospital is not actually required to even file your insurance, however, they do as a courtesy. Even when the hospital does file your insurance if they make a mistake and your claim is denied based on this mistake they can not be held liable and are not required to fix the problem. It is now the patients responsibilty to get the itemized statements and get them to the insurance company.
