Emergency Room Billing
Most emergency rooms are in-network, meaning they have a contract with Anthem. In some cases, you may need to get care in an out-of-network emergency room (ER). If you get a bill for an out-of-network ER visit, before paying it, call Anthem Health Guide toll-free at (844) 437-0486. They can help you understand your responsibility and advocate on your behalf for a lower bill.

Some hospitals and other providers do not provide one or more of the following services that may be covered under your plan contract and that you or your family member might need: family planning; contraceptive services, including emergency contraception; sterilization, including tubal ligation at the time of labor and delivery; infertility treatments; or abortion. You should always check ahead of time with your doctor, medical group, independent practice association, or clinic or call Anthem Health Guide to ensure that you can obtain the health care services that you need.
