Why can all the bills – the hospitals and the doctors – be on one form?
Providers, such as the hospital and doctors, must use their own tax identification numbers and health plan provider identification numbers. We are all required to send separate bills, and you will receive separate Explanations of Benefits (EOB) from the health plans. We realize how confusing it can be. We will do our best to work with you to explain any bill related to services provided at Akron General.
