FINANCIAL POLICY & INSURANCE
We participate with most major insurance companies and will submit claims to your carrier on your behalf. Medicaid patients are welcome. We also accept Medicare assignments – however, you will be responsible for the deductible and your co-payment for Medicare allowed charges. If you belong to an HMO or PPO plan, please verify that our physicians are in the network before your treatment begins.
Some insurance companies require you to use a specific laboratory or to obtain referrals or pre-authorization for office visits, hospital admissions, and treatment. If your plan requires a referral, please bring it with you to your first appointment. If you need assistance with your insurance requirements, our staff will make every effort to help you.
Please bring your insurance identification card(s) with you. A photocopy will be placed in our records. If you are covered by more than one insurance company, please let us know which company is the primary carrier. This will help to avoid any delays in receiving benefits. If there is any change in your health coverage, please contact the office to update your records.
Co-payments are expected at the time of your visit. We accept cash, checks, Visa, and MaterCard. We will be happy to assist you in developing a payment plan.
Please call our Billing Specialist if you have questions or need assistance with your insurance company. Please be assured that your confidentiality will be respected at all times.
We utilize different foundations and co-pay assistance programs to help patients with expenses, if they qualify. |
