DISCLAIMER: ARHS makes every effort to provide complete and accurate information about what our patients may be required to pay for healthcare services. ARHS chargemasters are uploaded annually to our website and may not reflect new charges added throughout the year, as charge amounts are subject to change. Charge amounts are the same for Inpatients & Outpatients, but insurance companies will pay differently depending on patient type. The amounts shown below do not reflect what your insurance company will hold you responsible for, including copay, deductible and coinsurance – this is an average estimate. Please call (828) 262-4111 to get the most accurate estimate of the patient’s responsibility of the charges.

We offer self-pay discounts, financial assistance and insurance contract rates not listed in the chargemaster. Please call (828) 262-4111 to get the most accurate estimate of the patient’s responsibility of the charges.
