About FHP Billing

Each time you receive care at a Foundation Health Partners facility, a new account will be opened for you. Each account generally ties to a specific date of service.

In most cases, your first bill should arrive about ten days after initial care. It will include a detailed description of the services provided for that account.

The statement identifies the amount due from your insurance company, and the amount due from you for each account. The statement also will include payments or new charges that occurred during the month.

Foundation Health Partners will submit bills to your insurance company when complete information is supplied. Please remember that your policy is a contract between you and your insurance company, and you have the final responsibility for payment of your medical bill. If your insurance company does not pay within forty-five days of billing, please contact them to resolve the delay. Secondary insurance is billed after the primary (or first) insurance pays.
