You are
responsible for co-pays, deductibles, non-covered services, co-insurance, all
balances and any services considered not medically necessary by your insurance company. Payment is
expected at the time of service. It is your
responsibility to know your deductible status. Here is a
list of the majority of our currently contracted insurance companies. There may
be periodic additions or deletions to this list. AARP Humana/Choice Care TriCare Blue Cross Blue Shield
MedCost
United
HealthCare Cigna Medicaid First Health Medicare If your
insurance company is not listed, please ask us. We file with the majority of
insurance companies. If your insurance company requires a referral, please
make sure you have proper documentation before coming to your appointment.
Patients without proper referrals will be responsible for paying their balance
in full when services are rendered. Please
provide us with complete and up to date insurance information. If this
information is not provided at the time of service we cannot file your claim
and you will be billed. Remember, co-pays,
coinsurance and deductibles are due when services are rendered. A statement fee
may be applied to each date of service if above are not paid at time of
service. If your account becomes delinquent, we may refer the account to a
collection agency or attorney. While
there may be some exceptions, cosmetic and non-covered services are usually not
reimbursed by insurance. If you have any questions regarding coverage for these
services, we recommend that you speak with your insurance representative before
the time of service. All lab
work, including pathology, is sent outside of our office. The lab we use,
selected on the basis of quality and service, may or may not be part of your
health plan. These charges are separate from ours, and they will bill you. |
