Who pays when Bloomington Hospital’s fees increase?
You and Indiana University pay the cost of medical services at Bloomington Hospital; therefore, we pay for increases in fees. When Bloomington Hospital raises its rates, we pay the cost of these fee increases, and Anthem continues to provide the services listed above for the same fixed monthly fee. Indiana University continues to encourage Bloomington Hospital to renew its contract with Anthem, whose PPO fee schedules allow IU’s employees to receive affordable medical services within the community. A decision by Bloomington Hospital not to do so will be harmful to Indiana University and its employees.
