Policies and Procedure
WHAT TO EXPECT
Fees are due at the time of service and we accept cash, checks, and all credit cards. Billing to third parties must be arranged in advance with our staff.
We do provide clients with all necessary documentation to submit to the client's insurance carrier for reimbursement. The amount you can expect to be reimbursed will depend on your carrier and the type of plan you have with them. If you are planning to use insurance, we strongly encourage you to call the "800" number on the back of your insurance card to find out at what level your company will reimburse you for services for an "out of network" provider. If your insurance carrier will reimburse you for our services we will be happy to speak with an insurance representative, if necessary, to insure proper claim submission. In most cases, it will simply be faxing our Superbill (provided to you after your visit) to your carrier's claims department. Please be advised, Medicare will not reimburse us for our services as we are "opted out" of Medicare.
Not all insurance providers cover the advised medication(s) if needed. we encourage you to download the underlined link below for prescription discounts.
