Insurance/Billing Information

South Shore Hospital's mission as a not-for-profit charity is to provide care to those in medical need, regardless of their ability to pay.

South Shore Hospital accepts nearly every major health insurance plan, as do the individual members of our medical staff. Because plan names and benefits change frequently, it is best to call your insurer to learn the details of your plan's benefits before you select a physician.
