Bill pay

Choose the option that works best for you to pay your bill from Community Hospital of the Monterey Peninsula or Montage Medical Group.

When and how will I get my bill?

If you are using insurance, you can expect a billing statement about 10 days after your insurance company pays.

If you are not using insurance, you can expect a billing statement about 10 days after you get care or leave the hospital. The statement will arrive in the mail or, if you’ve signed up for paperless delivery, through your patient portal account.

When is payment due?

You will be asked to pay your copayment (copay), deductible, or estimated patient portion before your visit.

With insurance coverage

If you have insurance, we’ll bill the insurance company on your account. After your insurance has paid its portion, you’ll get a bill for the balance. Pay that amount within 30 days. View insurance plans we accept and which services may not be covered.

Without insurance coverage

If you don’t have insurance, you’ll be responsible for paying your bill within 30 days of receiving your billing statement.
