When you are scheduled to be admitted to Al Khalidi Medical Center (KMC) through your physician's office, their receptionist will assist you on where to go. The following procedures are usually taken :
- At the admission center, the admission officer will ask you for personal demographic information, such as: name, birth date, address, insurance information and personal identification (ID for Jordanians and Passport for Non-Jordanians).
- The admission officer will generate a Hospital Admission Form for you to sign. Please, read this form carefully before signing. The form gives KMC permission to treat you or operate you as necessarily, as well, as permission to bill your insurance company.
- On registration: If you are an insured patient you will be transferred to insurance department, who will sum and discuss in details your insurance status, because several issues will need previous approval for admission to the hospital. Our insurance representative will help you in this process.
- After this stage, you will be transformed to patient's accounting to pay a deposit and signature of the admission form by an accounting employee. If you are insured you will sign a form to pay for any extra expenses not covered by the insurance company.
- The patient is then escorted to his/her room and by a hospital nurse his/her own physician is informed of the admission .
