Lehigh Valley Health Network

Government shutdown news

Lehigh Valley Health Network has placed a hold on the medical bills of any patient who is a government employee and impacted by the ongoing partial federal government shutdown at Dec. 22, 2018, due to a lapse in federal funding.

Those patients affected by the shutdown were given a 45-day delay in paying their bills when the shutdown ended. All health network services would be covered under the billing delay for these patients.

Patients who have already received care and would like to participate in having their billing delayed should call LVHN Patient Financial Services at 484-884-1300.
