Some of the insurance plans listed below cover the full scope of services provided by the Hospital, its affiliated physician groups and its Home Care department. Others cover a smaller selection of services. If you are not sure if the healthcare services provided to your child will be covered by your insurance plan, please contact your insurance provider to find out what is covered or call our Pre-Visit Financial Counseling Hotline at 1-800-664-7855 for additional information.

Bills for services provided at CHOP

There are three bills you may receive for services provided by The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. These include a Hospital bill (green), a Physician bill (blue) and a Home Care bill (white). Laboratory, radiology services and other non-physician provider services (e.g., physical therapy and speech therapy) are typically billed on a Hospital bill. 

Physician services are billed separately from Hospital charges and are not included in Hospital charges. CHOP physicians who provide services at CHOP locations, including Ambulatory Surgical Centers, generally participate with the same insurance plans as the Hospital. Learn more about your child's bill.

Insurance plans participating with CHOP

Please know that plans may be added or deleted at times, and that health plan acceptance may vary by provider. If you don't see your plan here or you want to check participation status, please call your insurance company to find out whether or not it considers CHOP and its providers to be in-network. CHOP and its affiliated providers work with many health insurance plans located outside of the Philadelphia area, including Medical Assistance Plans, to arrange for coverage on an individual basis.
