  • Flower and balloon information
    We restrict plants and flowers in patient-care areas where patients are highly immunosuppressed such as those with cancer or who are recovering from a transplant. Latex balloons are not permitted in any Virginia Mason Franciscan Health hospital facility.
  • Pastoral/spiritual care
    Our chaplains are available to address emotional and spiritual issues. Their services include individual and group consultations, prayer support and referrals to spiritual resources upon the patient’s discharge by the hospital.
  • Billing
    Your stay will be reviewed before admission and approved based on medical necessity criteria and will cover most services provided during your inpatient rehabilitation stay, as long as you continue to meet criteria. The Medical Director will evaluate whether you meet these criteria, but this is always subject to Medicare/Insurance review. If there are limitations in your coverage, your case manager will discuss these with you, as well as alternative resources to help meet your needs.

Out-of-pocket expenses that you may incur will depend upon your specific insurance coverage, co-payments, benefits, and eligibility. Most patients may need to purchase durable medical equipment (wheelchair, walker, commode) for discharge needs. Insurance coverage for this equipment varies.
