Network Hospitals

Network hospitals are those hospitals that have an agreement with your insurance company to offer cashless treatment services. This means that if you receive treatment at a network hospital, you need not worry about arranging cash for medical expenses upfront. Instead, your insurer will directly settle the hospital bill with the hospital or TPA. As a result, you will only be responsible for paying expenses that are not covered by your insurance policy including consumables, administrative fees, registration fees, and other costs.
