Insurance and Billing

Endoscopy Center of Marin Billing Department

Phone: (415) 898-0072  Fax: (415) 532-2290  Email: billing@ecmarin.com

If you have insurance, we will help you maximize your benefits by filing a claim for you. However, you will be financially responsible for any applicable co-payment, coinsurance, deductible, administrative fee, and/or denied service(s). You can request an estimate for your procedure from our billing department using the contact information above. For your convenience, we accept cash, check, and major credit cards. You can securely make a payment for your service online, at the center, or on the phone.

Pay Bill Online

You will receive one bill from the center for use of the outpatient facility, nursing services and all medications and equipment required during your endoscopic procedure. This bill is separate from the medical services provided by your gastroenterologist. You may also receive separate bills for pathology, lab and anesthesia services when applicable. Payments must be made to each entity separately.

Endoscopy Center of Marin participates in Medicare programs, as well as most commercial insurance plans. As with all insurance companies, verification of coverage is not a guarantee of payment. You will need to confirm your insurance carrier’s facility, lab and referral/pre-certification requirements prior to your procedure in order to receive the maximum benefit. You must notify our billing office of any changes in your coverage before your procedure date.

  • Aetna- Commercial
  • Blue Cross Blue Shield- Blue Cross of California Commercial

  • Canopy Health- Medicare Advantage
  • Cigna- Commercial
  • Health Net- Commercial

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.
