Pre-Admission

Pre-Admission Office

Call (307) 347-3221 about any special needs or concerns, including referrals or services that the patient may need to have arranged prior to admission.
 
Financial Information

If the patient has questions regarding out-of-pocket expenses for their surgery, or doesn’t have insurance coverage, please call patient registration at (307) 347-3221 prior to coming to the hospital.
 
Most insurance companies require prior authorization for procedures. Please verify with the physician's office that the surgery is authorized and whether it's for an inpatient or outpatient procedure.

Pre-Admission Tests

Patients may need to make arrangements for their pre-admission tests (i.e., lab work, chest X-ray, EKG) to be done at an outside facility. These tests should be completed at least two days prior to the day of surgery. If the tests are done through the patient’s medical or primary care physician, the patient may be asked to bring the results with them on the day of admission.  Many of these tests require pre-op authorization.
