Billing | Salem Hospital | Mass General Brigham
Salem Hospital, a member of Mass General Brigham , is committed to price transparency for our patients. When your visit takes place in a hospital outpatient location, there will typically be two charges which may result in you paying more for your visit than if you are seen in a physician office. You will also be charged by the hospital for use of hospital space, equipment, and support staff. For both physician office and hospital outpatient visits, your health insurer may require you to get a referral or authorization. If you are a Medicare beneficiary and your visit takes place in a hospital outpatient location, you will be responsible for a Medicare Part B out-of-pocket co-insurance payment of approximately $25 for the hospital facility charge.

North Shore Residents Benefit from $150K Grant for State’s Hospital to Home Program SALEM, MA – Salem Hospital, through collaborations with AgeSpan and Greater Lynn Senior Services GLSS, will benefit from a $150,000 grant that aims to expand the state’s hospital to home program. The funds, announced by the governor’s office earlier this month, will be used to provide specialized expertise to Salem Hospital that will support discharges directly to a patient’s home, rather than to a skilled nursing facility or other long-term care setting. These funds will be a huge benefit to our patients, hospital, and the community,” said Lee Ann Baldini, director of case management at Salem Hospital. “Not only will more patients be able to return directly home, instead of being sent to a skilled facility, but we will also be able to discharge them faster – allowing greater access to other members of the community who need their beds.” This grant provides community-based organizations, such as AgeSpan, an opportunity to strengthen our relationships with hospital systems and assure patients receive a well-coordinated discharge plan that supports their needs in community-based settings”, said AgeSpan CEO Joan Hatem-Roy.
