You must make an advance deposit equal to seven days payment upon admission to cover the hospitalization charges. You will also receive a bill for professional services. To make your advance deposit, please contact a finance representative at the Patients’ Cashier’s Office (room B S1.3885.1, local 34627). A deposit may be made by certified cheque, credit card or debit card. If you pay by credit card you can also do so by telephone (local 34627). It is sometimes possible to obtain a temporary Medicare card if one has been lost or is expired for less than six months.</li> </ul> <ul> <li>In accordance with an agreement between all Canadian provinces, patients from other provinces with a valid Medicare card from their home province are also fully covered for most services.</li> </ul> <ul> </ul> <p><strong>Non-insured services </strong></p> <p>The completion of forms for insurance and other purposes is not covered by RAMQ and doctors may charge a fee for this service.</p> <p>Certain medical treatments and services are not covered by RAMQ.

The hospital is not responsible for decisions made by insurance companies about reimbursement of services not covered by RAMQ.</p> <p><strong>Transitional-care charges</strong></p> <p>There is a daily hospitalization charge for patients who no longer require active medical treatment and who are awaiting transfer to a long-term-care facility. These charges have been determined by the Quebec Ministry of Health and Social Services. Your doctor will advise you of this change of status and the Social Service Department (local 31569) and the Accounting Office (local 42732) can provide more details.</p> <p><strong>Questions about hospital bills</strong></p> <p>If you have any questions concerning your bill, please call the <a href="/patients/during-your-visit/patient-accounts">Accounting Office</a> (local 42732)</p> <p><strong>Transport by ambulance </strong></p> <p>Ambulance charges are your responsibility unless you meet certain criteria for free ambulance transportation. Such criteria include transportation to a hospital following a traffic accident, or when a doctor has signed a form attesting to the medical need for transport for a person over age 65, or for certain people receiving Income Security benefits. Of note, private insurance will sometimes reimburse ambulance fees. </p> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-img-gallery field--type-image field--label-hidden field__items"> </div> </div>
