One of our patient account representatives will contact you prior to your procedure. They will collect necessary insurance coverage information to expedite the registration process for you. If you have not heard from them within 48 hours of your procedure, PLEASE CALL US AT (407)254-2549 and request someone to assist you in providing this information.

We will file your insurance for you for the coverage of the routine equipment and supplies, preprocedural services, routine drugs and anesthetics administered while in the Center, procedural room time and recovery charges.

Standard outpatient procedures are generally covered by your medical insurance. You may be asked for a partial payment upon admission to the center, dependent upon your insurance coverage. We make every effort to advise you of this amount prior to your admission. Full payment for the deductible and co-pay, if applicable, is required upon admission.

  • Medicaid patients must have a current, valid Medicaid card with them at time of admission
  • VISA, MasterCard, American Express, Discover and CareCredit are accepted
  • We also accept personal checks, cash, cashier’s checks and money orders

You will be billed separately for services from your physician, anesthesiologist, pathologist or any other laboratory service received.

  • DO NOT EAT OR DRINK ANYTHING AFTER MIDNIGHT BEFORE YOUR PROCEDURE. This is vitally important, and failure to comply could result in complications and may result in postponement of your procedure. If your child is having surgery, please be sure you follow the specific instructions provided by nursing personnel at the time of your pre-procedure phone call. If your child is an infant, our anesthesiologist may have additional instructions for you.
  • If you or your child is taking medications for high blood pressure or diabetes, contact your surgeon or discuss this with one of our nursing staff to ensure proper instructions to take or discontinue the medication.
  • If you experience any health changes between your recent visit to your doctor and the day of your procedure, notify your doctor. Please report even minor changes such as an elevated temperature, cough or cold.
  • If you suspect that you are pregnant, please notify your doctor.
  • For your own safety and protection, you will not be allowed to drive a motor vehicle following your procedure. Please make arrangements to have someone bring you and escort you home from the Center. Parents may want to have an additional adult to assist in accompanying a child home.
  • Bathe or shower and brush your teeth the morning of your procedure. Mascara, make-up, lipstick, nail polish and contact lenses should be removed.
  • Dress comfortably. Tight-fitting clothing may feel restrictive following some procedures.  You may also want to dress warmly due to the cooler temperatures maintained in the surgery center.
  • Please leave all valuables at home including jewelry, wallets and purses – BUT DON’T FORGET YOUR INSURANCE CARD(S) AND PROOF OF IDENTIFICATION!
  • Limit the number of people accompanying you. We request only one to maximize the comfort of everyone waiting. Both parents of our pediatric patients are welcome.
Following your procedure, you will be moved to our fully-equipped recovery area. There, our anesthesia and nursing staff will closely monitor you. The length of stay varies, and most patients are discharged within one-to-three hours.
Your physician will provide post-procedure instructions regarding diet, rest and medication. The Center will provide you with a written summary of these instructions.

Plan to have someone stay with you for 24 hours following your procedure, and pamper yourself during this time.

Since it is normal to feel drowsy after receiving anesthetic medications, we also recommend that you postpone the following activities for 24 hours after discharge:

  • Driving and operating equipment
  • Signing important papers
  • Making significant decisions
  • Drinking alcoholic beverages
