| INSURANCE
Please understand that our office
has many patients with many different insurance policies. It is
your responsibility to know the benefits of your plan.
Payment in cash, check, or major credit card is expected at the
time of service, and all co-payments and deductibles will be collected.
Please be advised that there may be services that your insurance
company will not cover (new immunizations, flu shots, vision or
hearing tests, etc.). We request full payment for these services
at the time rendered.
We ask that you present your insurance card at each visit to our
office. We require a copy of your insurance card on file in order
to file claims. If you do not have your insurance information with
you, we ask that you pay for services until that information is
provided.
As a courtesy to patients with insurance coverage, our staff will
file your claim if you provide the correct insurance information.
Although an insurance claim is filed on the patient’s behalf,
the financial responsibility for our services still remains with
the patient and not their insurance company. If we do not receive
payment within 60 days, it becomes the responsibility of the patient
to contact the insurance company to expedite claims processing.

is a participating provider.
