If you don't have a plan with a flat co-pay, then the hospital will bill the insurance company, they will pay what they pay, and then the hospital will send you a bill for your portion. It can take a few months.
If the hospital is under contract with the insurance company typically they have agreed to accept whatever the insurance company will pay in total. It should be stated on the insurance statement what the patient is responsible for and will indicate $0.00 if that is the case. It is not uncommon for hospitals to either intentionally, or in error to bill the patient for the difference even when the insurance statement indicates the patient's balance is zero.

Good point. I was referring more to any money owed due to co-insurance.
