Fees
Fees are based on the services provided and are comparable to
those charged by similar specialists in the area. A list of fees for
all services is available upon request. It is important that patients
have a clear understanding of their financial responsibilities and this
office's policies. Please call the business office with any questions
regarding fees, payments, or financial problems.
Insurance
Insurance coverage varies and each patient is handled
individually. It is important to bring insurance forms with
you. It is especially important to bring HMO authorization
or precertification forms as this will prevent delays. Our
staff will submit all insurance forms on your behalf.
However, Major Medical must be submitted by the patient -
the insurer makes payment directly to the patient. Patients
covered by commercial insurance plans are responsible for
the full amount of the charges.
It is important for you to know what and how much your
insurance plan covers. Most plans will cover outpatient
testing. Some Blue Shield plans do not cover consultations
and office visits. Many HMO plans cover authorized office
visits, but request that a co-payment be paid at the time of
the service.
