Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Associates accepts most major insurances. As a courtesy to you, we will bill your insurance carrier for you; however we cannot tell you what your policy will cover. Since your insurance policy and coverage is between you and your carrier, we urge you to contact them prior to your procedure. You will be responsible for any co-pays and/or deductibles.

You will receive an easy to understand, all-inclusive bill for the services provided at Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Associates. We offer the option to pay online. With our online bill pay option, you can securely make a payment for your service online with no hassles.

IMPORTANT: The online payment portal requires a minimum transaction of $10.00. If your bill is less than this, please call the phone number on your statement.

You can also expect a bill from your physician. You may also receive a bill for anesthesia and/or pathology services.

If you have questions regarding insurance prior to your appointment or procedure, please call us at (301) 340-8099.

The Cost of Your Procedure

Because you are responsible for costs for covered healthcare services until you reach your deductible, you should comparison shop if you elect to have a nonemergency procedure.

You can use tools like Healthcare Bluebook and the Medicare Procedure Price Lookup (for Medicare patients).  Many health insurance websites also provide information on where to find in-network services.
