Good Faith Estimates

Under the law, healthcare providers need to give patients who don't have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services. You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. Learn more.

Price transparency and shoppable search tool

Our customers deserve meaningful information about the price of their hospital care. Price transparency is an effort to make the necessary information available and easy to understand as it helps consumers compare costs and estimate expenses. Blanchard Valley Health System is committed to sharing information that will help you make decisions about your health care services. Learn more about the BVHS  “Shoppable Services” pricing tool.
