Step-by-Step: How to Verify Your Insurance Coverage

Patients should follow this verified verification process to confirm AdventHealth accepts their specific insurance plan before receiving care. This checklist prevents unexpected out-of-network billing and ensures coverage clarity.

  1. Locate your insurance card and identify the carrier name (e.g., "Aetna," "Blue Cross Blue Shield of Florida")
  2. Check your plan type - Note whether you have HMO, PPO, POS, EPO, or Medicare Advantage coverage
  3. Visit AdventHealth's official insurance page for your specific hospital or clinic location
  4. Call the billing department directly using the phone number on your facility's webpage (most locations respond within 24 hours)
  5. Ask specifically about your plan ID - Some carriers have multiple networks (e.g., "Blue Cross Traditional" vs. "BlueCare HMO")
  6. Request written confirmation via email or patient portal for your records before scheduled procedures
  7. Verify with your insurance carrier using their member services number to confirm AdventHealth is "in-network" for your specific plan
