UofL Hospital Emergency Room information

The UofL Hospital Emergency Room is listed at 530 S. Jackson Street with phone 502-562-3015. Emergency departments prioritize patients by medical urgency, not arrival order.

ER topic Practical detail What to do
ER phone 502-562-3015 Use for the UofL Hospital ER. Call 911 if you need emergency transport.
Trauma care UofL Hospital is officially described as having the region’s only adult Level I trauma center. For severe injury, call 911 and follow EMS direction.
Stroke symptoms Official materials identify UofL Hospital as a nationally accredited stroke center. Face drooping, arm weakness, speech trouble, sudden confusion, vision loss, or severe headache should trigger 911.
Burn care UofL Hospital lists a Burn Center that is an ABA organizational member. Seek emergency care for major burns, electrical burns, chemical burns, inhalation concerns, or burns involving face, hands, feet, genitals, or large areas.
Psychiatric emergency assessment UofL Health lists psychiatric emergency initial assessment within emergency care conditions. Call 911 or use emergency care if someone is in immediate danger of self-harm or harm to others.
ER intake details Bring ID, insurance, medication list, allergy list, and emergency contact if available. Do not delay emergency care to search for documents.

Admissions, procedure check-in, Labor and Delivery, and outpatient surgery

UofL Hospital’s admissions guidance says successful admission depends heavily on pre-registration and current insurance information.

Confirm pre-registration and insurance. If either item is unclear, call the main admissions line at 502-562-4960 before your scheduled admission or procedure.
Bring required documents. Bring photo ID, insurance card, any payment due, medication list, allergy list, provider instructions, and procedure paperwork.
Use the correct check-in location. The main admissions office is on the first floor of UofL Hospital behind the main information desk.
Labor and Delivery route. If being admitted to Labor and Delivery, official guidance says to go straight to the Center for Women & Infants on the third floor.
Outpatient surgery route. If the procedure is at UofL Health – Chestnut Street Outpatient Center, official guidance says to report to the lower level of 401 East Chestnut Street.
Do not guess the building: Downtown Louisville has several UofL Health facilities near each other. Confirm whether your appointment is at UofL Hospital, Jackson Street Outpatient Center, Chestnut Street Outpatient Center, Jewish Hospital, Frazier Rehab, or Brown Cancer Center.

Official online actions and what to do after opening them

Use official UofL Health links for final decisions. Third-party listings may show basic address and phone data but usually miss admissions, records, billing, portal, and visitor workflow details.

Services and care areas patients commonly need

UofL Hospital is not just a general hospital listing. It is an academic downtown hospital with emergency, trauma, burn, stroke, cancer, women and infants, surgery, imaging, hospital-based clinic, and inpatient support functions.

Care area What patients should know Best question to ask
Emergency medicine UofL Hospital ER is listed at 530 S. Jackson Street with phone 502-562-3015. Should I go to the ER, call 911, or use another UofL Health emergency location?
Adult trauma Official materials describe UofL Hospital as the region’s only adult Level I trauma center. For severe injury, ask EMS or the emergency team; do not self-triage severe trauma.
Stroke care UofL Hospital is identified in official materials as a nationally accredited stroke center. For stroke symptoms, call 911 and note the exact time symptoms began.
Burn care UofL Hospital lists a Burn Center that is an ABA organizational member. Should this burn be evaluated at an emergency department or burn center?
Brown Cancer Center access UofL Hospital is connected with UofL Health cancer care resources in the downtown campus area. Is my appointment at the hospital, Brown Cancer Center, or Jackson Street Outpatient Center?
Women and infants Labor and Delivery patients are directed to the Center for Women & Infants on the third floor. Where should I enter, where should my support person park, and what paperwork is needed?
Imaging and radiology Radiology reports and images may require portal access, records request, Change Healthcare Stratus, or PocketHealth. Do I need the written report, the actual images, or both?
Hospital-based clinics UofL Hospital-based clinics use MyHealthNow, though some items may still be available in MyChart. Will I receive a UofL Health facility bill and a separate provider bill?

MyHealthNow vs MyChart: which UofL Health portal to use

UofL Health uses more than one portal route. Choosing the wrong one is a common reason patients cannot find hospital results, physician-office summaries, or bill-payment tools.

Use MyHealthNow for hospital care

MyHealthNow is listed for UofL Health hospital, emergency department, radiology department, Frazier Rehabilitation Institute, Brown Cancer Center, Multi-Specialty Clinic, and hospital-based clinic visits.

Use MyChart for UofL Physicians

MyChart is listed for UofL Physicians provider-office visits and UofL Health – Urgent Care Plus visits. It can also be used for MyChart-based bill payment.

MyHealthNow can show

Appointments, test results, immunization, allergy and health history, medications, messages with outpatient providers in listed locations, bills, and visit summaries.

Portal help numbers

Call 502-562-4584 for MyHealthNow questions. Call 502-588-7005 for MyChart Patient Support.

Hospital visit
Start with MyHealthNow if the visit was at UofL Hospital, the ER, radiology, a hospital-based clinic, Brown Cancer Center, or Frazier Rehab.
Physician office
Start with MyChart for a UofL Physicians office visit or Urgent Care Plus visit.
Billing
Hospital facility bills and physician bills may use different payment routes, so match the payment link to the statement.
Emergency symptoms
Do not use portal messages for urgent symptoms. Call 911 or use emergency care.

Medical records, radiology images, itemized bills, and request status

UofL Health provides several routes for hospital, medical center, physician-practice, and radiology image records. Match your request to the exact record type.

Record need Best route What to include
Hospital medical record Mail the request to Release of Information, 225 Abraham Flexner Way, Suite 650, Louisville, KY 40202; fax to 502-627-1806; or use the online release form. Patient name, date of birth, dates of service, record type, delivery method, and signature or legal authority.

Billing, payment portals, financial assistance, and separate bills

Hospital billing can be confusing because UofL Health facility bills and UofL Physicians provider bills may use different payment paths.

Pay a UofL Hospital facility bill

Use the UofL Health Pay My Bill page and select UofL Health – UofL Hospital when your statement is a facility bill.

Pay a UofL Physicians bill

UofL Physicians bills are paid through MyChart or the physician billing path. Do not assume a physician bill is the same as a hospital facility bill.

Billing assistance

For UofL Health bill assistance, call 502-681-1440 or 833-392-2783. For UofL Physicians general assistance, use 502-588-4770.

Financial assistance

UofL Health and UofL Physicians both reference financial assistance resources. Ask before ignoring a bill, especially if uninsured, underinsured, or facing hardship.

Billing topic What to ask Why it matters
Facility vs provider bill Is this a UofL Health facility charge, UofL Physicians charge, anesthesia bill, radiology bill, lab bill, or emergency physician bill? A hospital visit can generate multiple bills from different billing entities.
Insurance processing Was my insurance billed, and what adjustment or denial was applied? Balances may change after insurance processing or correction.
Payment plan Can this account be placed on a payment plan? Payment plans may prevent avoidable late fees or collection activity.
Financial assistance Can you send me the financial assistance application and eligibility rules? Patients may qualify based on income, household size, insurance status, or hardship.
Itemized bill Can I receive an itemized bill with dates, codes, payments, adjustments, and patient responsibility? Itemized bills help with appeals, insurance questions, HSA/FSA records, and error checks.
Cost warning: Price transparency files and estimates are not the same as the final amount owed. Final cost can change based on diagnosis, complications, length of stay, procedures, medications, imaging, labs, physician services, and insurance processing.

Visitor rules, quiet hours, infection precautions, and caregiver planning

Visitor rules can change by unit, infection precautions, patient request, legal restrictions, behavior concerns, and care needs. Confirm current unit rules before a long drive.

Visitor topic Listed guidance Practical note
General visiting hours General inpatient visiting hours are listed as 6 a.m. to 9 p.m., with exceptions. Confirm unit-specific rules before visiting.
Number of visitors In general, two visitors may be permitted in a patient room at a given time. The primary nurse may restrict this if visitation disrupts care.
Overnight visitor From 9 p.m. to 6 a.m., accommodation for one visitor may be made with planning, approval, and security clearance. Ask the nurse before assuming overnight visitation is allowed.
Isolation patients In general, only one visitor may be allowed, and PPE rules must be followed. Visitors cannot be present during aerosolizing procedures.
Respiratory symptoms Visitors must not have respiratory illness symptoms or current or recent fever. Do not visit while sick; call the unit about alternatives.
Behavior contract UofL Hospital may require a behavior contract when a visitor routinely interferes with care. Disruptive behavior can result in removal or restriction.
Caregiver script: “I’m visiting a patient at UofL Hospital. Can you confirm the unit’s current visitor rule, visiting hours, room number, parking recommendation, and whether any isolation or quiet-time restrictions apply?”

Discharge checklist for patients and caregivers

Before leaving the hospital, make sure the patient and caregiver understand the diagnosis, medication changes, warning signs, follow-up, and pending results.

Confirm the diagnosis and care plan. Ask what condition was treated, what improved, what remains uncertain, and which symptoms should prompt a return to the ER.
Review every medication. Ask why each medication is prescribed, when to take it, how to take it, possible side effects, and which old medications should stop.
Clarify activity and diet rules. Ask when the patient can safely resume walking, driving, work, bathing, lifting, eating, or normal daily activities.
Confirm follow-up appointments. Ask when the follow-up is, who it is with, where it is located, and why the appointment is needed.
Ask about pending results. Ask whether any lab, imaging, culture, pathology, or specialist result is still pending and where it will appear in the portal.
Discharge question script: “Before we leave, can you review the diagnosis, medication changes, warning signs, follow-up appointments, pending tests, activity limits, and who to call if symptoms return?”
