Insurance
As a service to our patients, our
practice accepts most insurance programs, including
non-managed care, indemnity (traditional) and PPO
out-of-network. We are not part of any managed care
network. Our accounting staff will prepare all the necessary
forms for your benefits. However, we remind you that your specific
policy is an agreement between you and your insurance company.
Please keep in mind that you are responsible for your total
obligation should your insurance benefits result in less coverage
than anticipated. Our staff will gladly submit a pre-treatment
estimate to your insurance company so that you will know what your
benefits will be.
The fees charged for services
rendered to those who are insured are the usual and customary fees
charged to all our patients for similar services. Your policy may
base its allowances on a fixed fee schedule, which may or may not
coincide with our usual fees. You should be aware that different
insurance companies vary greatly in the types of coverage
available. Also, some companies take care of claims promptly while
others delay payment for several months.
