IMPORTANT INSURANCE INFORMATION -- Please Read Carefully

Medicare Patients:

As required by law, we will file Medicare claims but we require payment at the time of your office visit. Assignment is accepted for surgical, chemotherapy and hospital service charges only.

PPO, HMO, and All Other Insurance:

  1. We do not file insurance or accept assignment for office visits except for those patients covered by a PPO or HMO plan with which we have a contract or unless other arrangements have been made. All payments, including co-pays, are due at the time services are rendered.

  2. It is imperative that we have a copy of your current insurance card in your file. Therefore, if you do not have your insurance card we will be unable to file any charges with your insurance carrier and payment for the office call and any procedure will be required at the time of the visit.

  3. Insurance payment is expected within 60 days time or we will expect the patient to make full and immediate payment.

  4. We do not accept any insurance carrier's determination of reasonable and customary, allowable, or scheduled benefit as payment in full. We will be happy to provide additional information to your insurance company if requested. However, the remaining balance is the responsibility of the patient.

  5. We will accept Mastercard and Visa as payment on your account. If you need to make monthly payment arrangements, please call our office and we will be happy to work with you.

HMO and Managed Care Patients:

It is your responsibility to be aware of the need for an authorization or referral number from your primary care physician. This is especially important if you are a new patient.
