You might get an Explanation of Benefits (EOB) from your insurance company which explains what your plan did and did not pay, but you are not responsible for what your plan does not pay. An Explanation of Benefits is not a bill. Please check if your insurance plan is accepted at Denver Health.
If you have confidentiality concerns about having an Explanation of Benefits (EOB) mailed to your home, we can avoid using your insurance.
