You Can Choose
Palmdale Regional Medical Center wants you to know that you often have a choice of hospitals to go to for medical care.
If your insurance company or doctor suggests that you go to a particular facility for your hospital stay, the choice may really be up to you. In most cases, if you prefer one hospital to another, you can voice your preference to your insurance company or your doctor.
Just as you might insist on a particular procedure, or refuse a particular medicine, you have the power to seek the hospital of your choice. Start with your insurance company. It's your best source for information on which hospitals are part of your particular health insurance plan. Be sure to take that extra step to ask about your hospital insurance. This may ensure your ability to go to the hospital of YOUR choice.
There is no reason for you to feel uncomfortable voicing your preference, or discussing your choice with your doctor and insurance company. After all, it is your health and comfort.
You have the power and the choice. Choose the hospital you prefer.

When you need to find a doctor for yourself or your family, our FREE Direct Doctors Plus physician referral service can help.
