Good Faith Estimate


You have the right to receive a "Good Faith Estimate" explaining how much your care will cost. Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don't have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services. This does not apply to patients submitting superbills for out-of-network services.

You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. 

Make sure your provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before receiving services. You can also ask provider, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule a service. 

If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. ​Please save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate. For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call 1 (800) 985-3059.
