Billing for Procedures Performed in Hospitals However, if the hospital employs the surgeons and anesthesiologists and pay them salaries, the hospital may bill for the services that these providers perform if the individual providers are not allowed to bill separately. When lab specimens are evaluated at the hospital lab instead of being sent out, the hospital may bill for those services. Only one provider may bill for each service and you will need to determine whether it should be the hospital or the physician by discussing their arrangements at contract negotiation time.
