Preparing for your visit
Thank you for choosing St. Tammany Health System. Here’s some useful information for you to know as you prepare for your visit with us.
Preregistration
Online pre-registration may be used for guests who are scheduled for outpatient tests (lab work, X-rays, etc.) as well as for those being admitted to the hospital for an overnight stay.
Upon your arrival, you will park in the lot on the south side of the hospital and check in at the information desk near the main entrance. You will then be directed to the admitting office, where you will sign papers giving permission for treatment and release of information.
It is important that you bring your insurance cards with you. You will also be asked to pay a deposit to cover any deductibles, co-insurance and non-covered charges. The balance of these expenses must be paid at the time of discharge. (If needed, call 985-871-5656 to speak with a financial counselor.)
Before pre-registering, please take a moment to review our policy on Patient Rights and Responsibilities, which will also be provided to you by an admissions clerk during registration.
