Why do I receive two statements; one from The University of Chicago Hospital and another statement from The University of Chicago Physicians Group?
Hospitals and physicians are required to bill patients and third-parties (insurance plans, agencies) in different ways, using different systems of coding and documentation methods. Medicare has two different plans. Medicare Part A is for hospital and other facility payments. Medicare Part B is for physician and other medical service payments. As such, we have two business offices: U of C Hospital Finance and U of C Physicians Group, each of which send a monthly statement.
