Financial policy The following information is provided to make our financial policies clear and avoid any possible misunderstandings concerning the payment for professional services.
Insurance
Our practice participates in a variety of insurance plans. It is your responsibility to:
• Bring your Insurance Card to every visit
• Be prepared to pay for any co-pays and deductibles that apply
• Payment in full is due at the time of service for any medical care not covered by your insurance
Self-Pay patients
• Payment for office visits is due at the time of service
• A payment plan is available for obstetrical care and for surgical
procedures. Please ask to speak with our Administrator for details
Referrals
It is the patients responsibility to bring any required referrals for
treatment at the time of the visit. If a referral is not available, the
appointment may have to be rescheduled.
Lab fees Please be aware that lab fees for blood work and pathology (including PAP smears) are separate from our office charges and may be billed directly to you by the lab company.
Insurance coverage is complicated and each policy is different. If you
have any questions about your insurance, we are happy to help you.
However, details about your particular coverage must be directed at
your Insurance Company’s Member Services Department. Their number is
usually found in the back of the insurance card.
